Tributes to Wangari Mathaai at IGF 11
by Grace Mutung'u (Bomu) 27 Sep '11

27 Sep '11

It is so striking that the IGF programme book, which I imagine was printed way before the sad demise of Prof Wangari Mathaai extensively quotes her on page (as an introduction to Kenya)...whoever had this great foresight! In addition, delegate after delegate today sent messages of condolence to Kenyans on her loss. She was truly a world heroine. R.I.P -- Grace L.N.

No. __, Month day, year The Raila âbigâ story We sat back to watch KTN Prime last Tuesday night. As usual, Michael Oyier was reading the news with the enthusiasm of a Nyahururu man floored by âYokozunaâ. Nobody at the entire âauthoritative news channelâ seems to have succeeded in discovering how to pump âthe much neededâ vigor into Michael.

e-Tribute to Maathai Wangare
by Walubengo J 27 Sep '11

27 Sep '11

Just checked on Twitter. Wangare Maathai is currently "trending". Ave not been on twitter for too long but I have never seen any other Kenyan trend on twitter. This just shows how International this our heroine of ours was and yet @ home she was barely heard of/listened to. How tragic that history repeats itself - in that Prophets are rarely acknowledged at home. walu.

Going beyond coding
by robert yawe 27 Sep '11

27 Sep '11

Hi, I had forgot the following little fact about Microsoft: Bill Gates, Steve Ballmer and Paul Allen at Microsoft, seeing an opportunity in the making, approached a tiny software company, Seattle Computer Products, which had an x86-compatible OS which used a similar command interpreter to CP/M called 86-DOS. Microsoft purchased the OS and perpetual usage rights, which they then re-christened as "DOS", for a mere $75,000. After negotiating an almost unheard of non-exclusive licensing agreement with IBM, the company would be established as the leader in personal computer software for decades to come. I wonder should we be overemphasising the ability of one to code or do we need to also develop and encourage negotiators and scouts who can identify a product and find a home for it? We just might be barking up the wrong tree, we need visionaries who can help dreamers realise their dreams Regards Robert Yawe KAY System Technologies Ltd Phoenix House, 6th Floor P O Box 55806 Nairobi, 00200 Kenya Tel: +254722511225, +254202010696

Technology and Teachers
by Japheth kemboi 26 Sep '11

26 Sep '11

Dear Jane, As Warigia mentioned, technology will not replace or substitute teachers. No cause for alarm re: KNUT. What teachers need to do is to work on technological competencies in the areas of ICT use. Technology has become a vital TOOL that enhances classroom teaching and learning. Tech savvy Teachers would then be able to choose what, when and how to employ technology in respect to course content. Technology alone cannot teach. What teachers will see in class is an extended learning process for learners unlike teacher led sessions. Teachers become facilitators offering guidance to learners as they explore concepts and ideas on their own. NB. Teachers must be there to introduce learners to new concepts and learning objectives, device activities, assess knowledge, etc. Technology brings big leaps in education but teaching remains a teachers role.

e-Discussion on Aligning records management with ICT e-government and Freedom of Information in East Africa
by Grace Githaiga 25 Sep '11

25 Sep '11

Dear Listers Greetings. Kictanet will hold a 10 day e-discussion on Aligning records management with ICT e-government and Freedom of Information in East Africa, a study conducted by International Records Management Trust (IRMT) and supported by IDRC . The study covered five Eastern African Countries namely Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, Burundi and Tanzania. The findings are categories under three broad themes namely: 1. Planning for Records Management Requirements in ICT systems, 2. Electronic Records and Citizens, and 3. Freedom of Information and Records Management. Under each theme, three main concerns are identified as follows: 1. Planning for Records Management Requirements in ICT systems Lack of planning for records management requirements in ICT systems, Lack of planning for records management functionality in ICT systems, Consequences of the lack of planning for coordinated records management across systems. 2. Electronic Records and Citizens Records Management Controls Protect Records as Evidence: erroneous information can become ‘authoritative’ source in the absence of original records. Judicial processes are affected by the failure to address records management requirements. Evidentiary value of electronic records: relying on electronic records before the law recognizes them as evidence put government and citizens at risk. If electronic records are to have value as evidence, the laws of evidence need to be reformed. 3. Freedom of Information and Records Management Misconception of FOI in East Africa, Inconsistence between Acts of Parliament, Record Keeping for freedom of information. The e-discussion will start next week on monday September 12, and will end on September 23, 2011. Attached please find three papers for each them. They are 3 pages each. We look forward to another lively debate from listers not just from Kenya, but also Uganda, Tanzania, Burundi and Rwanda, as the research focused on the five countries. Below is the proposed programme: Dates Issue Main Question 7/9 Announcement/Introduction of proposed e-discussion, provide papers to listers and request them to read in readiness for the debate Theme Planning for Records Management Requirements in ICT systems 12/9 Lack of planning for records management requirements in ICT systems The lack of schemes of service and training programmes for records managers has been identified as a factor in the governments’ ability to manage their records in the electronic environment. How can governments address this problem? 13/9 Lack of planning for records management functionality in ICT systems The lack of co-ordination between systems has been identified as an issue by governments in the region. A number of agencies and boards have been established in each of the countries studied to address this lack of co-ordination. How is the lack of attention to records management impeding these agencies and boards from fulfilling their mandate to co-ordinate ICT implementation? 14/9 Consequences of the lack of planning for coordinated records management across systems Standards have been developed internationally for introducing records management requirements in ICT systems. However, governments and standards bureaux in the East African region have not adopted/adapted these standards. Why is this the case, and what steps could be taken to support the introduction of good practice standards in the region? Theme Electronic Records and Citizens 15/9 Records Management Controls Protect Records as Evidence: erroneous information can become ‘authoritative’ source in the absence of original records The widespread misperception in government organisations in East Africa, that electronic records are inherently more secure than hardcopy records, is encouraging computerisation and digitisation that is not necessarily well-planned. How can the risks of overlooking records management issues during computerisation be highlighted to senior management within government? 16/9 Judicial Processes are Affected by the Failure to Address Records Management Requirements Poor hardcopy records management has been cited as a cause of delays in judicial processes. Electronic records management is often expected to reduce these delays, but the research shows this has not been the experience of the courts in the EAC countries. What steps could be taken to ensure records management inputs to computerisation and digitisation projects in the courts? Weekend 17 18 19/9 Evidentiary Value of Electronic Records: relying on electronic records before the law recognizes them as evidence put governemtn and citizens at risk. If electronic records are to have value as evidence, the laws of evidence need to be reformed Government organisations across the EAC are already creating electronic records of their decisions, actions and transactions with citizens, though the laws of evidence in the EAC countries do not recognise electronic records. Reform of these laws is the first step to ensuring that electronic records can be considered as admissible evidence in court. What steps could be taken to raise this issue with Law Reform Commissions and legislators? Theme Freedom of Information and Records Management 20/9 Misconception of FOI in East Africa Given that the Kenyan Bill has been under consideration for four years, the Ugandan Act has not been implemented in the six years since its enactment, and there is no discernible plan to introduce Freedom of Information in Burundi, Rwanda and Tanzania, East African governments do not seem to be embracing FOI. What factors have caused this lack of enthusiasm? 21/9 Inconsistence between Acts of Parliament The conflicts between existing Acts of Parliament and new FOI laws need to be addressed, particularly the 30 year rule. FOI laws may erode the powers of National Archives and contradict the provisions of existing Acts. What steps can be taken to highlight these issues to legislators, given that the recommendations of Law Reform Commissions and NGOs have not yet been acted upon? 22/9 Implications of government Record Keeping for freedom of information Government organisations in the region are unprepared for the demands that FOI will place on records management services. Poor record-keeping may serve as an argument for delaying Freedom of Information enactment and the failure to implement Freedom of Information Acts. What strategies could be developed to synchronise Freedom of Information and records management initiatives? Wrap Up 23/9 Conclusions and emerging Issues ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you have the strength to survive, you have the power to succeed.

Re: [kictanet] Day 6: e-Discussion. What laws define the rules of evidence in Kenya?
by meshack emakunat 23 Sep '11

Dear Kerubo,With electronic signature is the "telephone number, mobile number" a representation of it? If so does it mean that any communication via telephone (sms) a person is represented numerically by it? Then can it be a valid identification for persons in the tech revolution or rather this ICT age.Hence get rid paper!

'CIPESA Open Government in Africa Brief
by Lillian Nalwoga 22 Sep '11

22 Sep '11

Dear members, On September 20, 2011, the Open Government Partnership (OGP) was launched. It aims to promote transparency, empower citizens, fight corruption, and harness new technologies to strengthen governance. The Collaboration on International ICT Policy for East and Southern Africa (CIPESA) has prepared a briefing note - attached - that explains the OGP, looks at OGP indicators and prospects in selected African countries (Ghana, Kenya, Liberia, Tanzania, Uganda, South Africa) and explores the role ICT could play in catalysing the achievement of Open Government in Africa. This paper is also available at our website, www.cipesa.org , where more resources on open government [in Africa] will be posted in the coming days. Comments (programmes(a)cipesa.org) are most welcome. Best, -- Lillian Nalwoga CIPESA www.cipesa.org +256 712 204335

Re: [kictanet] Day 5: e-Discussion on Aligning records management with ICT e-government and Freedom of Information in East Africa/ Where are you Listers?
by Grace Githaiga 22 Sep '11

22 Sep '11

Good morning Good People This is day five of our discussion on Aligning records management with ICT e-government and Freedom of Information in East Africa, a study conducted by International Records Management Trust (IRMT) and supported by IDRC . The study covered five Eastern African Countries namely Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, Burundi and Tanzania Today, we still focus on the second theme namely: Electronic Records and Citizens. This will be our focus also for tomorrow (Wednesday). Under this theme, three issues were identified and today we look at the second issue namely that Judicial Processes are Affected by the Failure to Address Records Management Requirements Consider this: · Have poor keeping of hard copies resulted in delays in the judicial process? · Is the keeping of electronic records going to reduce these delays? · Is information lost when digitization is taking place? · How best can the electronic records be managed to ensure their effective use? Question What steps could be taken to ensure records management inputs to computerization and digitization projects in the courts? Looking forward to more contributions today.

To: ggithaiga(a)hotmail.com Dear Grace, Listers, Just for information. 1. In the case of Kenya The Evidence Act,Cap.80 was amended vide CAP411A, to include electronic records and PART VII-ELECTRONIC RECORDS was added in Chapter III. of CAP80. 2. Going forward, there will be need for FOI and Data Protection legislation, the latter being critical in ensuring that personal data held by authorities is accurate and that the data subject right to correct erroneous information is upheld.
