Africa Top Level Domains Organization (AfTLD) is a not-for-profit organisation composed of managers of country code top level domains (ccTLDs) in Africa.

It also undertakes awareness and outreach activities aimed to inform the African Internet community about ICANN processes and the ccTLD community. In addition, AfTLD is involved in capacity building activities designed to assist the regional technical community in the development of Internet and Domain Name System (DNS) related technologies. 

AfTLD is an active participant in global Internet governance processes and organisations, such as ICANN and the IGF, where it presents common positions as agreed upon by its membership.
