Warigia, thank you for passing along my request. I've joined your forum to help me become better informed about current examples of online engagement in Kenya - I have a hunch I will humbly learn far more than I will ultimately share with my upcoming speaking trip. This is me: http://stevenclift.com - I've spoken across almost 30 countries on "e-democracy" but this is my first opportunity to visit Sub-Saharan Africa. I run, http://E-Democracy.org which created the world's first election information website in 1994 and today focuses on hosting local online discussion that matter. We have a special Ford Foundation funded effort in the Cedar Riverside neighborhood of Minneapolis which has large Somali and Oromo populations: http://e-democracy.org/inclusion So I've put out a few global queries: Digitial Inclusion Network: http://forums.e-democracy.org/groups/inclusion/messages/topic/2AiHjJ1MZ8Hr8d... Democracies Online Exchange: http://groups.dowire.org/r/topic/3Y7NmSTaw3sb7cm7SGvtKz See the links for the great responses so far. Here is a query for your network ... I am interested in discovering both local and national Kenyan or African politicians who are quite active with social media. Being able to point out examples at a more local level where the feedback loop and closeness to the public is often stronger is quite useful. I am also interested in any political, government, or NGO-based "engagement" or "consultation" sites that have jumped on the mobile bandwagon. I am particularly interested in any mobile website or apps that are taking advantage of the increasingly popular smartphone broader net access beyond SMS. I am interested to understand what percent of Kenyan mobile phones are used to access the Internet in some way beyond SMS. Any suggestions? Links? Comments? Thanks for having me as a guest here.
