Dear members,
Hon. Mutahi Kagwe recently, and quite appropriately, challenged the
private
sector for lagging behind in the implementation of ICT policy
aspirations.
Echoing this concern, Dr. Bitange Ndemo, his PS lamented the apparent
disconnect between policy expectations for Kenyans to seize the
enormous
opportunity presented and the reality on the ground.
Challenged like everyone one else, this is the Internet Society's
response,
which fits very well within this project mission.
I look forward to your support by participating, sponsoring a trainee
or
circulating this to your networks. That way, you will give another
person(s)
the knowledge where to find this "hard to find" training.
Sincerely,
Alex Gakuru
