Tóm tắt

This technical background paper provides insights on entry points for competition authorities in Africa to increase competition advocacy activities to improve the conditions of competition in digital markets and digital infrastructure. In Africa, there are various opportunities for policymakers at the national and regional levels to enhance competition advocacy efforts and promote competition issues in digital infrastructure and digital markets. These include regulatory advice and opinions on current or draft laws and regulations, market studies or inquiries, awareness raising and capacity building, and collaboration between competition authorities and telecommunications regulators, or any other government agency with powers over digital markets, at the national and regional levels.
