Well, Businesses are always out to increase their market share by making a good name (CSR), Civil Society is largely comprised of ideologists whereas government has to manage the two by ensuring the policies they develop jointly are adhered to, i think we need a system of checks and balances to ensure that all players adhere to their mandate, for instance the public procurement oversight authority ensures that all government instituions adhere to procurement regulations set for government we need an independent body to ensure that all players adhere to their mandate, am not sure whether CCK is supposed to do that.

Morning all,
Today & Tomorrow we shall wind up the discussion by reviewing the various Public Private Partnership Models for ICT4D initiatives. I am not privy to the details of the Models governing several PPP initiatives and would like to be enlightened where possible.
Such initiatives include the TEAMs initiative with various Telco Operators, the Ministry of Education Kenya ICT Trust Fund with Microsoft, the World Bank TCIP (Transparency & Communication Infrastructure Project) with the Kenya ICT Board amongst others.
My general opinion is that managing such alliances is bound to be problematic given the diverse and often conflicting motives of the players - particularly when one side (Govt) is heavily procedural, Private Sector is moderately procedural while the Civil Society is largely un-procedural (methinks). How then, does one harness such dialectic groups to read from the same ICT4D script and what are the Challenges experienced?
2days on this one.

This is breaking news!
Harrry Hare has just been elected the new Coordinator of the EAICT4D Network. This is another plus for the Civil Society given Harry's good network in East Africa and advocacy skills. Harry has played a major role in ICT4D activities in the region and is knowledgeable in the field. The election of Harry to this important office is therefore a recognition of his skills and contribution to the ICT4D in the region.
We wish him well and hope he will consider pending issues such as open access and unified licensing in the communication sector as priority for advocacy.
Congrats Harry!!
Leonard
