Alice, could get advice on which part of Landmark this meeting shall run? Also which name the group shall be booked in as.

Fw: URGENT - feedback on site design for national advocacysites
by alice＠apc.org 20 May '05

20 May '05

Dear KICTANet members The APC/CATIA project is developing a national advocacy website for our activities in Kenya. Please look at the draft site: http://toolkit.ecn.cz/test/animators/3/ Keep in mind the following: - the text on the page is 'not real' and just there to give you a sense of what the design looks like, once you make your own site live you will have control over the text - the text at the top of the site will read: Catalysing Access to ICTs in [Kenya] .... i.o.w. where there is currently the word 'country' we shall replace it with the name of the relevant country - the site is database driven and hosted on the APC server so we won't need to worry about hosting, or HTML conversion - we will be able to customise the site to meet our own needs and even give it our own look and feel if we want to - We will be able to add content to the site by using forms into which we can paste, or type text - the site can share content with other CATIA sites, with APC national ICT policy sites and with the Africa ICT Policy Monitor Please could I have your feedback on the template by next week Tuesday? In particular can you comment on: - the design - does this general layout meet our needs? - categories (are they what you need? what is missing? what should be changed?) - overall look and feel - any other questions/comments. warm regards A.

Re: Appointment of New CCK Board
by alice＠apc.org 20 May '05

20 May '05

Dear All Thank you very much for the congratulatory messages. Although I have not received official confirmation, apart from a phone call from the Ministry's office I believe this appointment is in recognition of the work of the Kenya ICT Action Network (KICTANET) a multi stakeholder forum, consisting of civil society, academia, private sector, media, youth, gender groups and development partners. I must also congratulate the Kenya government for acknowledging that the complexities of meeting the challenges of ICTs as an enabler of sustainable development requires bringing together major stakeholders in a new form of decision finding, decision-making and communication. I hope this will provide an opportunity for a truly participatory process. A.

Parliamanterians at Policy Meeting
by waudo siganga 10 May '05

10 May '05

Dear Alice, All I had a meeting yesterday with our Ambassador (Mary Odinga) here in Cairo and in the discussions arose the question of whether arrangements have been made to ensure Parliamentarians will be at the Mombasa Policy meeting. I did need not have any information on this but the ambassador was of the opinion we must ensure the invitation is sent out to Parliamentarians. Any info? In the meantime Brian Longwe made a very well received presentation to the Africa ICT ministers on the Africa Regional IxP program. It's also relieving to see Mungusi back at CCK. He is amongst the Kenyans here in Cairo. Kind Regards Waudo Siganga UN WGIG -- waudo siganga emailsignet(a)mailcan.com

National ICT Stakaholders Conference Mombasa
by alice＠apc.org 08 May '05

08 May '05

Dear Colleagues During the ICT donor round table and Ministry of Information and Communications meeting held on Tuesday 3rd May 2005, Florence Etta, Shem Ochudho and I were requested to join the organising committee constituted for the national ICT Stakeholders workshop. The organising committee chair Mr. Mugabe had suggested 6th May for the first committee meeting, but unfortunately this meeting did not take place. So I have nothing much to report apart from the following issues that were discussed informally 1. The workshop has been postponed to June 6-8 2005 in view of a number of other communication related events taking place during the month of May 2. The letter requesting for funding has been drafted and I believe posted to the various organisations that had expressed interest in supporting the event. 3. Mr. Mugabe said he would communicate to us about a suitable date for the next organising committee meeting thanks and kind regards A.

RE: [Kictanet] Fw: Draft ICT Policy - Wonderful job done

Dear ALL, As we shower Alice with congratulatory messages, I have an issue under the environment section that states; ___________ Limits should be placed on importing refurbished computers. Appropriate recycling facilities should be established for disposing of used computers which may contain toxic substances such as mercury. ___________ I think we should be able to define what we mean by refurbished instead of a blanked limit. Refurbs have been used for very noble tasks and good examples can be seen in the work of Computer for Schools Kenya, ALIN through Baobab Communications among others. I hope this was not 'sneaked' for individuals interest. The national interests should come first BUT I agree standards for refurbs should be set. I believe most refurbs are better than some of the clones in the market. I hope this can be corrected.

Never got the Agenda but assuming you are to discuss where to go in terms of what next after collating the contributions from various stakeholders, then heres my 2pence since i realise I cannot make it in tomorrow's meeting. 1. We need to the get the Goverment (PS Info in particular) to commit to a timetable as to when the final Draft Policy shall be published and by when it shall be discussed/endorsed by Cabinet. 2. A similar timetable for when the corresponding / appropriate ICT Bills should be passed would be a good additional. 3. We need the Government to develop a secondary document (an implementation plan) highlighting the when, the who and the how the Objectives shall be achieved and be Monitored. I know this sounds like too much to ask from Government, but hey, IMF/World Bank usually asks for more and often gets it- yet I am not sure they are paying the tax u and me are paying... walu. >>> Lizette Kraft <lkraft(a)idrc.or.ke> 05/03/05 12:13pm >>> To all Members, There will be a KICTANET monthly meeting tomorrow Wednesday 4th May, 2005 at the usual venue - Jacaranda Hotel, at 10:00 - 1:00 with lunch included.

Draft ICT Policy KICATNET Declaration
by alice＠apc.org 28 Apr '05

28 Apr '05

Kenya ICT Action Network Declaration We the members of the Kenya ICT Action Network (KICTANet), working together both online and off line as private sector entities, civil society groups, academia, media and members of the public; Practicing an inclusive and participatory use of information and communication technologies, have shared views and shaped common positions in an effort to collectively contribute to the formulation of the Kenya Draft ICT policy. Have acted as a central meeting point and locus of collaboration for various initiatives and projects relating to ICT in Kenya. The network’s actions build upon, expand and elaborate pre-existing efforts and projects. KICTANet also aims to avoid multiplicity and encourage synergies for activities and initiatives by providing a platform to enhance collaboration among organisations and networks interested in the fast developing ICT sector in Kenya. We propose that the Government builds on the success of KICTANet and utilizes the existing collaborative structure to establish a multi-stakeholder forum to work hand in hand with the Ministry of Information and Communication in an effort to provide support for efforts to finalize and implement Kenya’s ICT policy. KICTANet aims to facilitate such collaboration on ICT projects with the Government to promote effective policy development and implementation at the national level, regional and international levels. KICTANet therefore aims to strengthen the effectiveness of the Government’s ICT policy activities by providing support and input from Kenya’s citizenry and believes that Kenya stands the best chance of finalizing and implementing an effective and innovative ICT policy by utilizing the resources, manpower and creativity which lie inside of the network and by fully utilizing multi-stakeholder collaboration to find common ground and achieve common goals. The multi-stakeholder network, which forms KICTANet presents these amendments to the draft ICT policy to the Government as a major contribution by Kenya’s citizens to the multi-stakeholder policy process. This document is submitted to the Government in good faith and with confidence that this effort represents the beginning of a long and productive process, which encompasses all aspects of Kenyan society and enhances our democracy A.

Thanks for the report. Just for the record, I didn't say that this was the first meeting to bring all the sectors together. The mutual reaching out between sectors has been an evolving process taking place over the last year or so, and culminating in such milestones as the last two National ICT Conventions, the ICT Visioning Workshop and the establishment of KICTANET. This meeting was another excellent manifestation of the trend, now well established. Thanks to all who made it possible.
