County ICT Survey 2019-2020 Assessment Report
by David Indeje 30 Aug '20

30 Aug '20

Listers, How is your county fairing when it comes to adopting and using ICT? KICTANet collaborated with the ICT Authority to institute and carry out an annual ICT survey to monitor and encourage faster adoption and maturity of ICTs within Counties as envisioned in the ICT Roadmaps. KICTANet and ICT Authority believes that the successful implementation of ICTs in county governments continue to face many challenges and requires legislative, budgetary, technical as well as political support. The report consolidates the findings for the three selected Counties of Uasin Gishu, Kajiado, and Taita-Taveta. Assessment is based on the ICT Governance & ManagementFramework which was adapted from the ISACA, COBIT2 Framework. [image: image.png] In our findings, Uasin Gishu County is doing relatively well in the following three categories, ICT Strategy, ICT Financial & Procurement Management as well as ICT System Acquisition and Deployment. Kajiado County was performing relatively well in ICT Policy & Strategy as well as the Infrastructure and Support Categories. Also, the Digital Learning Program (DLP) had been implemented at close to 80% of the schools. In Taita Taveta, the County is doing relatively well in ICT Financial & Procurement Management, ICT Infrastructure Operations & User Support, and ICT System Acquisition & Deployment. Most Counties were doing relatively well in the following three categories, ICT Strategy & ICT Financial & Procurement Management with an average score of 1.7 and 1.8 were recorded respectively. However, the rest of the ICT categories were recording average scores below 1.5 implying that they are either incomplete or being performed in an ad-hoc manner.

Smart Business Models Are Needed to Connect Schools & Clinics
by Adam Lane 21 Aug '20

21 Aug '20

My latest blog that may be of interest to some... https://blog.huawei.com/2020/08/21/smart-business-models-are-needed-to-conn… Smart Business Models Are Needed to Connect Schools & Clinics By Adam Lane August 21, 2020 In 2015 Huawei released Connecting the Future<https://www.huawei.com/minisite/digital-enablement/>, a report calling on the ICT industry to develop new business models to address the digital divide. [https://blog.huawei.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Screenshot-1.jpg] Now five years on, it is time to update this report with specific ideas that reflect today. Here I want to look at the pressing need to connect schools and clinics to the Internet and the new business models that can help do this. It's Not Just About Coverage Before we look at the business models for connectivity itself, we need to acknowledge that just as the majority of the world's population is covered by a broadband network, the majority of the world's schools and clinics are covered too - both tend to be in population centers. The issue is not just one of connectivity infrastructure. Where infrastructure is needed, Huawei has a variety of low-cost base stations that can help. For everywhere else with a broadband network, though, schools and clinics are not connected for similar reasons that affect much of the world's population. These include a lack of devices (and power), suitable local content, and digital skills. One Size Doesn't Fit All There are three major differences between schools and clinics that we should clarify: * Schools often need a lot more devices and power than clinics, with a typical school needing at least one IT lab of 30 devices (usually one device per two students in a class of 60). In contrast, a clinic, depending on its size, could get by with just a few devices at crucial points of care for registering patients, consulting patients, and managing medicines. * Educational content for schools may be quite complex with content required for multiple school years and multiple subjects, and in interactive formats for meeting local curricula. Health content is usually easier to develop through health information management systems supplemented by live consultations and training by video. * Digital skills in schools need to start with teachers and enable them to teach digital skills to students, much like the approach that Huawei's TECH4ALL DigiTruck program is taking in Kenya<https://blog.huawei.com/2020/04/30/computer-for-schools-kenya-leaving-no-on…>, which has so far taught digital skills to 1,145 students and 100 teachers. In clinics, it is only necessary to teach health staff, and they only need to learn to input and use health data and simple IT systems. One of the challenges in education is integrating digital skills into the educational teaching environment, which comes with additional cultural and teaching challenges. Innovative business models can address these issues. For example, some companies subsidise devices through advertising (or e-commerce revenue obtained from consumers using those devices), while pay-as-you-go phone options sold together with solar panels (which care remotely locked if payment is not made) is now primed to take off for consumer purchases thanks to new solutions to lock smartphones and new partnerships with banks, operators, and device manufacturers. Digital Skills Boost ROI This year, all sorts of educational content has been rapidly created and made available either for free or affordably, with many private companies collaborating with curriculum regulators and developing different business models for governments, schools, or consumers. GSMA reports that there is now strong evidence of ROI for operators to invest in training citizens in digital skills<https://www.gsma.com/mobilefordevelopment/connected-society/mistt/>, since those consumers will increase their online usage and many governments have now begun increasing their investments, such as by rapidly training health staff in digital skills to collect COVID-19 related data. Now back to connectivity, and more importantly, the affordability of connectivity. This is a critical issue, much more so than the actual connectivity infrastructure, though we can discuss that too. The challenge, as with individuals, is that business models for connectivity are usually based on recurring expenses. Connectivity can generally be provided over either fibre networks, microwave, or mobile networks. Telecommunications companies cover the up-front costs of a mobile tower, microwave tower, or fibre Internet and then recoup those costs, along with operating costs, from customers over time. In the case of a fibre connection, the up-front costs are very high, but the operating costs are very low. However, for a mobile or microwave tower, the up-front costs are less, especially on a per user basis, but the operating costs are higher, particularly power costs. Solving the Connectivity Problem Implementing connectivity requires either a long-term commitment to funding from schools/clinics, so that the operator makes the up-front investment, or a large up-front investment from the schools/clinics themselves, so that the operating costs are low. A key factor in deciding which option to take would be the availability of existing infrastructure. If an operator already has infrastructure (mobile, microwave, or fibre) nearby, then using that could be most cost effective, as they've already made much of the up-front cost and may only need minimal additional infrastructure along with the operating costs. If there is little existing infrastructure and thus a large up-front cost is necessary, usually in fibre or microwave, the public sector could decide to make this investment itself, if there is a large amount of funding available, or a loan can be taken out and repaid over time. If the costs of that loan repayment are less than the alternative of an equivalent contract with the private sector, it could make sense. In many developing countries that lack existing infrastructure, this option is selected with the intention of renting out that infrastructure to the private sector to connect other customers nearby, and then using that revenue to recoup any loan costs. Variations on these business models are very interesting, and it can lead to interesting collaborations between the private and public sectors. Collaboration for Connectivity One such collaboration is with power companies. Since civil works account for a large part of fibre costs, many fibre companies co-locate their fibre on electricity poles. As schools and clinics all need electricity, one option is to connect them to fibre at the same time as connecting them to electricity grids (though some remote areas may not get connected to the grid and could use off-grid solar instead). This can reduce costs significantly. As with electricity, once it connects a school or clinic and can easily be extended to other paying customers nearby, the same can be done with broadband, and thus generate revenue. In fact, as the last mile of broadband could still be delivered wirelessly, there may be minimal costs beyond just putting Wi-Fi routers on school or clinic rooftops! There are also innovative business models available using wireless or mobile networks. Three in particular are worth exploring: 1. When operators are given mobile licenses, they are often accompanied by various obligations for coverage (e.g. percent of population or number of base stations). But, they can also be given obligations for providing Internet to schools or clinics. Earlier this year, South Africa made additional spectrum available to operators to cope with demand during COVID-19, with one requirement being to make connectivity available to 104 district virtual classroom platforms with minimum speeds of 10 Mbps. They also mandated zero-rating (i.e. free access for mobile subscribers) to local education websites. 2. Many governments around the world have Universal Service Funds (USF) to support building base stations in rural areas. In Kenya, the current USF is requiring operators that build those base stations to connect at least one primary or secondary school in the site vicinity with a minimum speed of 10 Mbps through 1 (or more) CPEs - a CPE is a mobile router with a sim card inside that provides a Wi-Fi hotspot. 3. When operators build a base station they need land and power, among other things. Schools often have a lot of land and are secure. Many are also connected to the grid or have solar power. Kenya, for example, aims to connect all schools to power. Around the world there are mobile operators who will pay rent to a school to use their site, so it is possible for agreements to be reached whereby the operators could instead provide internet to the school in lieu of payment, as well as sharing costs on power (or even paying the school for power). These three business models are interesting for mobile operators for two reasons: * Operators want to increase demand for Internet usage, especially in areas where demand may be low, bringing Internet connectivity for the first time. Providing free Internet at a school will help increase demand, and those using it at school will also increase their digital skills. Students and teachers will get used to the Internet and be keen to use it more outside of school. * Operators have a fixed capacity at a mobile site based on the equipment they are using, and much of the time this capacity is not being used. There is little marginal cost for a base station at full capacity or half capacity, other than some extra power or extra international bandwidth fees. This is one reason why many operators offer very cheap Internet packages at certain times, like night owl packages to be used (for downloading) between midnight and 5 am. Therefore, operators do not incur particularly high costs when providing schools or clinics with unused capacity. As teachers and students become more used to online learning during COVID-19, they are not only acquiring the digital skills they need, they are also experiencing how useful online learning can be. This changes both what is possible and students' expectations once they return to school. The same is true in the health space. With health workers becoming accustomed to collecting health data and receiving training on COVID-19 and other diseases online, and with patients around the world becoming used to speaking to a doctor online, both health workers and patients have gained digital skills and the expectation of more online health interactions. This is a wonderful opportunity for speeding up school and clinic connectivity efforts. And though the benefits are now clearer than ever, we know there is less money than ever, especially in developing countries. So, let's work together to further explore how innovative business models can help get those schools and clinics online as fast as we can.

Re: [kictanet] Registration for the Virtual Africa Internet Summit is open
by Barrack Otieno 10 Aug '20

10 Aug '20

Listers, Please note that registration for the AIS 2020 virtual meeting is now open. Please find the English, French, Arabic and Portuguese versions below as below. Thanks. -------- [English, French, Arabic and Portuguese versions below] Dear colleagues, We trust you are well and keeping safe amidst the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. As communicated earlier, we have been watching and analysing the effects of the pandemic. Accordingly, a physical meeting is not a possibility in the present circumstances and as you are aware, we are holding the Africa Internet Summit 2020 (AIS'20) meeting virtually from 14-18 September 2020. We are now pleased to inform you that registration is now open for the AIS'20 Online meeting. You can now register online at: https://2020.internetsummit.africa/en/?option=com_afmeeting&view=register The Meeting platform is being developed by Meetecho. There is no software to install as Meetecho can be used directly on any device with a WebRTC-enabled web browser. A link and an access token will be shared with you later to join the online meeting. The draft agenda is available at https://2020.internetsummit.africa/en/agenda/programme and will be updated soon to indicate the sessions and timings. While registering you may choose to subscribe to the ais20(a)internetsummit.africa mailing list to receive updates about the event and engage with meeting participants via the mailing list ais20-discuss(a)internetsummit.africa AFRINIC Elections On 16 July 2020, we sought your views on how AFRINIC can best proceed with the election to fill the vacant seat of one PDP co-chair. We wish to thank you for the feedback received on the subject matter. We have taken on board your views and proposals, and carefully considered your concerns. On 23 July 2020, a summary of the feedback was made available to the AFRINIC Community with the following conclusions: a) Extend the tenure of the co-chair and to hold the PDP co-chair election at the next face-to-face Public Policy Meeting; b) Extend the tenure of the co-chair and to hold an online PDP co-chair election within the next 12 months; c) Hold the PDP co-chair election during the Public Policy Meeting in September 2020. Extension of the tenure of the PDP co-chair An extension of the terms of the Co-Chair, will result in having the 2 Co-Chairs' terms to expire at the same time during the next face to face Public Policy Meeting in 2021, if any. Such a situation while actionable is not recommended for continuity purposes and the policy process. It is good practice to have always one experienced Co-Chair in office at any one time. Holding of an online non-members election (PDP and NRO ASO AC Representative) We should also note that AFRINIC is and should be at the forefront of the use of the technology in the execution of various decisions. Besides, various organisations, including the other Regional Internet Registries (RIRs), have successfully set up and run online meetings and elections. We believe that we also have the resources, capacity and resolve to host a successful online AIS'20 meeting and run the elections. We have in the past weeks been conducting technical analyses of tools and trials as we prepare to hold the meeting and elections. We are confident that our efforts are not in vain and we will be successful in our endeavours. We will keep you updated on the progress and involved in the testing phases of the online election platform. As mentioned, we have been working on the ways and modalities of conducting a credible election. The integrity of the elections is fundamentally important to us and the community. Rest assured that we are looking into implementing a robust system that has been flawlessly used in the past by many other organisations to ensure this is achieved.. We have also noted a recent rise in the number of new subscriptions to the RPD list for the month of July 2020 compared to the average rate of new subscriptions in previous months. Thus having benchmarked with a sister RIR, we have resolved that only those who registered at least six months will be eligible to vote. This will help maintain the credibility and integrity of the electoral process. Thank you and we look forward to your continued support as we seek to build as a stronger, credible and innovative AFRINIC. We remain at your disposal for any further information that you may require and look forward to seeing you soon. ........................................................................................................

Nous souhaitons vous remercier pour les commentaires reçus sur ce sujet. Nous avons pris en compte vos points de vue et vos propositions, et avons examiné attentivement vos préoccupations. Le 23 juillet 2020, un résumé des commentaires a été mis à la disposition de la Communauté AFRINIC avec les conclusions suivantes : a) Prolongation du mandat du coprésident et l'organisation des élections pour le siège du coprésident du PDP lors de la prochaine réunion de politique publique en face-à-face ; b) Prolongation du mandat du coprésident et l'organisation des élections en ligne pour le siège du coprésident du PDP dans les 12 prochains mois ; c) Organisation des élections pour le siège du coprésident du PDP lors de la réunion de politique publique en septembre 2020. Prolongation du mandat de la coprésidence du PDP Une prolongation du mandat des coprésidents aura pour conséquence que les mandats des deux coprésidents expireront en même temps lors de la prochaine réunion de politique publique en 2021, le cas échéant. Une telle situation, bien qu'elle soit réalisable, n'est pas recommandée pour des raisons de continuité et de processus politique. Il est de bonne pratique d'avoir toujours un coprésident expérimenté en fonction à tout moment. Tenue d'une élection en ligne pour les non-membres (représentants du PDP et du NRO ASO AC) Il convient également de noter qu'AFRINIC est et devrait être à la pointe de l'utilisation de la technologie dans la mise en exécution de diverses décisions. En outre, plusieurs organisations, dont les autres registres Internet régionaux (RIR), ont mis en place et ont organisé avec succès des réunions et des élections en ligne. Nous pensons que nous avons également les ressources, la capacité et la détermination nécessaires pour organiser avec succès une réunion en ligne de l'AIS'20 et pour mener à bien les élections. Au cours des dernières semaines, nous avons effectué des analyses techniques des outils et des essais alors que nous nous préparons à organiser la réunion et les élections. Nous sommes convaincus que nos efforts ne sont pas vains et que nous réussirons à les mener à bien. Nous vous tiendrons au courant des progrès et vous impliquerons dans les phases de test de la plate-forme électorale en ligne. Comme nous l'avons mentionné, nous avons travaillé sur les moyens et les modalités de la conduite d'une élection crédible. L'intégrité des élections est d'une importance fondamentale pour nous et pour la communauté. Soyez assurés que nous envisageons de mettre en œuvre un système solide qui a été utilisé sans faille dans le passé par de nombreuses autres organisations pour garantir cette intégrité. Nous avons également noté une augmentation récente du nombre de nouvelles inscriptions sur la liste du RPD pour le mois de juillet 2020 par rapport au taux moyen des nouvelles inscriptions des mois précédents. Ainsi, après avoir fait une comparaison avec une RIR sœur, nous avons décidé que seuls ceux qui se sont inscrits pour une période d'au moins six mois pourront voter. Cela contribuera à maintenir la crédibilité et l'intégrité du processus électoral. Nous vous remercions et nous comptons sur votre soutien continu alors que nous cherchons à construire une AFRINIC plus forte, plus crédible et plus innovante. Nous restons à votre disposition pour toute information complémentaire que vous pourriez souhaiter et espérons vous voir bientôt. ................................................................. زملائي الاعزاء، نحن نثق في أنك بخير وتحافظ على سلامتك وسط التحديات التي يمثلها جائحة COVID-19. وكما ذكرنا من قبل ، فإننا نراقب آثار الوباء ونحللها. ووفقًا لذلك ، فإن الاجتماع الفعلي ليس ممكنًا في الظروف الحالية ، وكما تعلمون ، فإننا نعقد اجتماع قمة الإنترنت لإفريقيا 2020 (AIS'20) تقريبًا يومي 14 و 18 سبتمبر 2020. يسعدنا الآن أن نخبرك أن التسجيل مفتوح الآن لاجتماع AIS'20 عبر الإنترنت. يمكنك الآن التسجيل عبر الإنترنت على: https://2020.internetsummit.africa/en/؟ option=com_afmeeting&view=register يتم تطوير منصة الاجتماع بواسطة Meetecho. لا يوجد برنامج لتثبيته حيث يمكن استخدام Meetecho مباشرة في أي جهاز مزود بمتصفح ويب يدعم WebRTC. ستتم مشاركة رابط ورمز وصول معك لاحقًا للانضمام إلى الاجتماع عبر الإنترنت. مشروع جدول الأعمال متاح في https://2020.internetsummit.africa/en/agenda/programme وسيتم تحديثه قريبًا للإشارة إلى الجلسات والمواعيد. أثناء التسجيل ، يمكنك اختيار الاشتراك في القائمة البريدية ais20(a)internetsummit.africa لتلقي تحديثات حول الحدث والتفاعل مع المشاركين في الاجتماع عبر القائمة البريدية ais20-discuss(a)internetsummit.africa انتخابات في 16 يوليو 2020 ، سعينا للحصول على آرائك حول أفضل طريقة يمكن لـ AFRINIC المضي قدمًا فيها في الانتخابات لملء المقعد الشاغر للرئيس المشارك لـ PDP. نود أن نشكرك على التعليقات التي تلقيتها حول هذا الموضوع. لقد أخذنا في الاعتبار آرائك ومقترحاتك ، ونظرنا بعناية في مخاوفك. في 23 يوليو 2020 ، تم توفير ملخص التعليقات لمجتمع AFRINIC مع الاستنتاجات التالية: أ) تمديد ولاية الرئيس المشارك وإجراء انتخابات الرئيس المشارك لـ PDP في الاجتماع التالي للسياسة العامة وجهًا لوجه ؛ ب) تمديد ولاية الرئيس المشارك وإجراء انتخابات الرئيس عبر الإنترنت PDP في غضون الـ 12 شهرًا القادمة ؛ ج) إجراء انتخابات الرئيس المشارك لـ PDP خلال اجتماع السياسة العامة في سبتمبر 2020. تمديد فترة الرئيس المشارك PDP سيؤدي تمديد فترات الرئيس المشارك إلى انتهاء صلاحية الرئيسين المتشاركين في نفس الوقت خلال اجتماع السياسة العامة وجهاً لوجه في عام 2021 ، إن وجد. لا يوصى بمثل هذا الموقف عندما يكون قابلاً للتنفيذ لأغراض الاستمرارية وعملية السياسة. من الممارسات الجيدة أن يكون لديك دائمًا رئيس مشارك متمرس في المنصب في أي وقت. إجراء انتخابات غير الأعضاء عبر الإنترنت (PDP وممثل NRO ASO AC) يجب أن نلاحظ أيضًا أن AFRINIC هو وينبغي أن يكون في طليعة استخدام التكنولوجيا في تنفيذ القرارات المختلفة. إلى جانب ذلك ، نجحت العديد من المنظمات ، بما في ذلك سجلات الإنترنت الإقليمية الأخرى (RIRs) في إعداد وإدارة الاجتماعات والانتخابات عبر الإنترنت. نعتقد أن لدينا أيضًا الموارد والقدرة والتصميم لاستضافة اجتماع ناجح عبر الإنترنت AIS'20 وإدارة الانتخابات. لقد قمنا في الأسابيع الماضية بإجراء تحليلات تقنية للأدوات والمحاكمات بينما نستعد لعقد الاجتماع والانتخابات. نحن واثقون من أن جهودنا ليست عبثا وسننجح في مساعينا. سنوافيك بالمستجدات ونشارك في مراحل اختبار المنصة الانتخابية عبر الإنترنت. كما ذكرنا ، كنا نعمل على طرق وطرق إجراء انتخابات ذات مصداقية. نزاهة الانتخابات مهمة بشكل أساسي لنا وللمجتمع. كن مطمئنًا ، نحن نتطلع إلى تطبيق نظام قوي تم استخدامه بلا أخطاء في الماضي من قبل العديد من المنظمات الأخرى لضمان تحقيق ذلك .. كما لاحظنا ارتفاعًا حديثًا في عدد الاشتراكات الجديدة في قائمة RPD للشهر يوليو 2020 مقارنة بمتوسط معدل الاشتراكات الجديدة في الأشهر السابقة. وبالتالي ، بعد أن قمنا بقياس مع أخت RIR ، قررنا أنه فقط أولئك الذين سجلوا ستة أشهر على الأقل سيكونون مؤهلين للتصويت. هذا سوف يساعد في الحفاظ على مصداقية ونزاهة العملية الانتخابية. شكرا لكم ونتطلع إلى دعمكم المستمر ونحن نسعى لبناء AFRINIC أقوى وموثوق ومبتكر. نحن لا نزال تحت تصرفك للحصول على أي معلومات أخرى قد تحتاجها ونتطلع إلى رؤيتك قريبًا. ................................................................ Caros colegas, Confiamos que está bem e se mantém seguro no meio dos desafios apresentados pela pandemia da COVID-19. Como comunicado anteriormente, temos estado a observar e a analisar os efeitos da pandemia. Consequentemente, uma reunião física não é uma possibilidade nas actuais circunstâncias e, como sabe, estamos a realizar a Cimeira Africana da Internet 2020 (AIS'20), praticamente a 14-18 de Setembro de 2020. Temos agora o prazer de informar que está aberta a inscrição para a reunião on-line da AIS'20. Pode agora registar-se em linha em: https://2020.internetsummit.africa/en/?option=com_afmeeting&view=register A plataforma do Encontro está a ser desenvolvida por Meetecho. Não existe software a instalar, uma vez que Meetecho pode ser utilizado directamente em qualquer dispositivo com um navegador WebRTC activado. Um link e uma ficha de acesso serão partilhados consigo mais tarde para se juntar à reunião online. O projecto de agenda está disponível em https://2020.internetsummit.africa/en/agenda/programme e será actualizado em breve para indicar as sessões e os horários. Ao inscrever-se, poderá optar por subscrever a lista de correio ais20(a)internetsummit.africa para receber actualizações sobre o evento e envolver-se com os participantes na reunião através da lista de correio ais20-discuss(a)internetsummit.africa. Eleições A 16 de Julho de 2020, procurámos a vossa opinião sobre a melhor forma de AFRINIC proceder com a eleição para preencher o lugar vago de um co-presidente do PDP. Gostaríamos de lhe agradecer o feedback recebido sobre o assunto. Tomámos em consideração as suas opiniões e propostas, e considerámos cuidadosamente as suas preocupações. Em 23 de Julho de 2020, foi disponibilizado à Comunidade AFRINIC um resumo do feedback com as seguintes conclusões: a) Prorrogar o mandato do co-presidente e realizar a eleição do co-presidente do PDP na próxima Reunião de Políticas Públicas cara a cara; b) Prorrogar o mandato do co-presidente e realizar uma eleição on-line do co-presidente do PDP dentro dos próximos 12 meses; c) Realizar a eleição da co-presidência do PDP durante a Reunião de Políticas Públicas em Setembro de 2020. Prorrogação do mandato da co-presidência do PDP Uma extensão dos termos da Co-Presidência, resultará em ter os 2 termos dos Co-Presidentes a expirar ao mesmo tempo durante a próxima Reunião de Políticas Públicas face a face em 2021, se houver. Tal situação, embora não seja recomendável para efeitos de continuidade e do processo político, não é passível de acção. É uma boa prática ter sempre um co-presidente experiente no cargo em qualquer altura. Realização de uma eleição online de não-membros (PDP e Representante NRO ASO AC) Devemos também notar que a AFRINIC está e deve estar na vanguarda da utilização da tecnologia na execução de várias decisões. Além disso, várias organizações, incluindo os outros Registos Regionais da Internet (RIR), criaram e realizam com sucesso reuniões e eleições em linha. Acreditamos que também temos os recursos, a capacidade e a determinação para acolher uma reunião AIS'20 em linha bem sucedida e realizar as eleições. Nas últimas semanas temos vindo a realizar análises técnicas de ferramentas e julgamentos enquanto nos preparamos para realizar a reunião e as eleições. Estamos confiantes de que os nossos esforços não são em vão e que seremos bem sucedidos nos nossos esforços. Manter-vos-emos informados sobre os progressos e envolvidos nas fases de teste da plataforma eleitoral online. Como mencionado, temos estado a trabalhar sobre as formas e modalidades de conduzir uma eleição credível. A integridade das eleições é fundamentalmente importante para nós e para a comunidade. Estejam certos de que estamos a estudar a implementação de um sistema robusto que tem sido utilizado sem falhas no passado por muitas outras organizações para garantir que tal seja alcançado... Notámos também um aumento recente do número de novas inscrições na lista RPD para o mês de Julho de 2020 em comparação com a taxa média de novas inscrições nos meses anteriores. Assim, tendo feito um benchmarking com um RIR irmão, resolvemos que apenas aqueles que se registaram pelo menos seis meses serão elegíveis para votar. Isto ajudará a manter a credibilidade e integridade do processo eleitoral. Obrigado e aguardamos com expectativa a continuação do vosso apoio enquanto procuramos construir como um AFRINIC mais forte, credível e inovador. Permanecemos à sua disposição para qualquer informação adicional que possa necessitar e esperamos vê-lo em breve. -- Barrack O.

Webinar Tomorrow: Digital Lending Regulation by the Central Bank of Kenya
by Linda Bonyo 09 Aug '20

09 Aug '20

Dear Listers, Since their entrance into the market, digital lenders have remained outside the regulation of the Central Bank of Kenya. It was not up until June 2020 that the Central Bank presented the CBK Amendment Bill 2020 that proposed the inclusion of digital finance service providers and digital financial products under the governance of the CBK. What impact does this have for Digital Lenders, borrowers and traditional lending institutions? Is the regulation necessary? What impact does this have on Financial inclusion? Join the Lawyers Hub on this Policy exploratory journey tomorrow Monday 10th August at 12 Noon in response to the call for Public participation to the amendment bill. Date: Monday 10th August 2020 Time 12 Noon Register Here <http://Bit.ly/DigitalLendingKe> After registering, you will receive a link and reminder at the time of the event.

Foreign ICT firms to cede 30pc stake under new law
by Mwendwa Kivuva 07 Aug '20

07 Aug '20

Foreign companies eyeing to do business in the country’s lucrative ICT sector will have to surrender 30 per cent shareholding to Kenyans. This is according to the National Information Communications and Technology Policy Guidelines 2020, published last week, that spell out new regulatory obligations by companies and individuals working in the ICT sector. “The government strongly encourages Kenyans to participate in the ICT and science and technology sector through equity participation,” states the regulatory policy published last week by the ICT Ministry. “It is the policy that only companies with at least 30 per cent substantive Kenyan ownership, either corporate or individual, will be licensed to provide ICT services.” The State anticipates the policy will create 20 Kenyan multi-national ICT companies, 300 mid-sized firms, 5,000 small and medium enterprises and 20,000 startups. This is expected to increase the number of startups by easing their barrier to entry. The policy also proposes a government venture capital fund that will invest in start-ups for a portion of the equity on a first-loss basis in case the startup fails.

Dear colleagues. It is with deep sadness that I write to inform you of the passing of Suzanne Drouilh, who some may recall was an enthusiastic and committed advocate for technology in the early days of the Internet in Kenya and the East African region. She passed on peacefully at her home on the evening of Saturday 1st August after many months of being unwell. May her soul rest in eternal peace. As you read this please spare a moment in her memory.
