Dear KICTANET Members,

 

I would like to inform you that the Eastern Africa e-Government Consultative Workshop will take place on the 28-29 June 2005 at the Grand Regency Hotel.

 

The Agenda for the meeting is to review the progress made since November 2004 when the first e-Government Workshop was held in Arusha, validate the East African e-Government Consultants report and set a way forward while taking cognizance of identified priority areas for the sub-region.

 

So far 80 delegates have been invited to attend this stakeholder’s consultative meeting from the following broad areas

 

  • Government Ministries and Agencies
  • Civil society
  • Private Sector
  • Special Interest Groups
  • Academia

 

In addition to the members of the IWG, 45 participants from Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda and Tanzania from the states’ Governments involved the e-Government strategy and implementation will be fully sponsored to attend.

 

A small Exhibition will run along side the Workshop and will showcase some of the e-Government Solutions available in the market.

 

I would like to invite KICTANET members to participate in this event by attending as workshop delegates; I will welcome and forward any presentation proposals for the Workshop to the East African Community e-Government Working Group for consideration.

 

Please find attached the current Workshop Programme and Registration form.

 

 

Regards

 

Andrew Karanja
