Hello Florence,

Looks like KICTANET is similar to I-Network Uganda. Please visit our website and get ideas. www.i-network.or.ug

If it is similar, then this will be a record - for the first time Ugandans will be ahead. Kenyans are usually ahead of Ugandans.

How is KICTANET

Hi all, Hi all, At the KICTANET meeting held today it was agreed that we start a discussion in respect of the structure desired for KICTANet. This is to serve as a welcome to this discussion which will last as long as it is reasonably clear what might be done but not exceeding 2 weeks.

The question for today is this: Are the objectives stated below ok? Please suggest additions and or deletions.

KICTANET is a loose network of organisations involved with ICTs or share common/similar ICT goals in Kenya to work together to achieve the national aim of ICT enabled growth and development. Objectives of the Kenya ICT Action Network will be: · Engagement in mutually supportive activities for lasting change · Facilitation of effective dissemination of the ICT policy and implementation processes · Facilitation of effective implementation of the ICT policy Provision of access to varied and multiple resources/skills · Pooling of limited resources for the common goal and common good · Linking of organisations and networks working at the community level to those specialised and working in the broader political space

We hope that by forming this loose network, we shall avoid multiplicity and unhealthy competition or mutual suspicion while encouraging synergies for activities as well as initiatives by providing a platform for collaboration among organisations and networks interested in the fast developing ICT sector in Kenya. Cheers, FE
