Consumer International has launched a2knetwork.org.  The network

seeks to harness the collective voice and effectiveness of consumer
groups working around the world and across issue sectors, to guarantee
that consumer interests are adequately represented in national and
global Intellectual Property (IP) debates having to do with educational
materials, software, film, and music, and thereby to serve as a
catalyst for policy change, by putting pressure on governments and
international organisations to develop more balanced IP regimes.

This is a wonderful project to collect information on A2K in Africa.  They have a nice blog as well.
