Dear Listers,
Join Mzalendo for a High-Level Forum on Digital and Data Infrastructure Policies to Promote an Inclusive and Secure Digital Economy.
The forum which discusses the Policy Brief <https://info.mzalendo.com/media_root/file_archive/Policy_Brief_on_Digital_and_Data_Policies_for_an_Inclusive_and_Secure_Digit_aABH6Xp.pdf> launched by Mzalendo Trust on 15th October 2021 virtually. The Brief delineates stakeholders in the digital economy ecosystem and addresses the unique situation of the quest for a Kenyan consumer at the Bottom of the Pyramid (BoP) to meaningfully participate and thrive in a digital economy. Further, it identifies actions and stakeholders to empower BoP. Key among the stakeholders is the Ministry responsible for ICT, ICT regulatory authority, women, youth and PWD groups, Civil Society Organizations & service providers for a collaborative and collective approach to address the challenges.
Consequently, Mzalendo Trust seeks to bring together a variety of stakeholders to sensitize them on the findings of the Policy Brief. This will be in line with the Constitution of Kenya 2010, Data Protection Act, 2019 and digital economy laws in Kenya.
