We look at the Vision Mission Overarching Objectives of the Draft ICT Policy. Background The Vision is the dream, where you want to be 10, 15, 20years from now. The Mission is what you need to do regularly to get there, while the Objectives are intermediary milestones, the specific, measurable and achievable targets to guide you towards your mission and vision. It would be nice to have one objective per thematic area but do not be constrained by that. Just wear your creative hat and float out what Vision, Mission and Overarching objectives you propose for our ICT policy in any manner :-) You may also opt to propose amendments to the proposed Vision, Mission & Objectives as hosted on Jadili platform. 1Day on this issue. -walu.

Hi Walu & team, My comments are on the Jadili platform. Overall, we need to ensure we are writing a policy document that goes beyond "*keeping abreast with current ICT the current ICT technology*." For the ICT sector, things get obsolete the moment they are accepted as being "current". So let us go beyond that and plan for "emerging and futuristic" by facilitating innovation. As Prof. Waema stated, the drafting of the document seems to have been rushed. I noticed the section without any comments/annotations titled "*ICT Professional Bodies*" and which stated: *The Government will recognize and encourage the formation of national ICT
professional bodies registered under the laws of Kenya to foster professional ethics, standards and human resource development in the sector.*
Apart from the comments made elsewhere on the "ICT Practitioners Bill", the policy should make it clear that this section does not call for a single 'umbrella' body as ICTAK attempted to have enacted but rather the recognition of the roles of the various professional bodies and multi-stakeholder forums. A similar approach applies to *Broadcasting professionals* especially the ones involved in "technical aspects of broadcasting" who have to deal with convergence but are always caught up in fixing the crisis created by the public broadcasting or media owners failing to adopt convergence, not just in terms of 'converged technology', but also *convergence in their operations*: *(n) Encouraging national professional bodies for media practitioners to
participate in setting standards in broadcasting. Also encourage media training institutions to provide structured specialized programmes that cater for people with talent for creative writing, film production, animation creative and technical aspects of broadcasting*
Lastly, there is no mention of *Freedom of Information* as a concept. Only "Access to Information" is covered and in reference to making government websites accessible and sharing government content with private sector for reuse. Regards, Wainaina Watch African TV live online and learn about Digital Television policy, regulation and technology in Africa on issues relating to Consumers, Content and Coverage.

@Wainaina, Noted. walu. From: DigitalTVAfrica via kictanet <kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> To: jwalu@yahoo.com Cc: DigitalTVAfrica <wainaina@digitaltvafrica.com> Sent: Tuesday, July 12, 2016 2:48 PM Subject: Re: [kictanet] National ICT Poilicy: DAY 10 of 10:-Vision, Mission, Objectives. Hi Walu & team, My comments are on the Jadili platform. Overall, we need to ensure we are writing a policy document that goes beyond "keeping abreast with current ICT the current ICT technology." For the ICT sector, things get obsolete the moment they are accepted as being "current". So let us go beyond that and plan for "emerging and futuristic" by facilitating innovation. As Prof. Waema stated, the drafting of the document seems to have been rushed. I noticed the section without any comments/annotations titled "ICT Professional Bodies" and which stated: The Government will recognize and encourage the formation of national ICT professional bodies registered under the laws of Kenya to foster professional ethics, standards and human resource development in the sector. Apart from the comments made elsewhere on the "ICT Practitioners Bill", the policy should make it clear that this section does not call for a single 'umbrella' body as ICTAK attempted to have enacted but rather the recognition of the roles of the various professional bodies and multi-stakeholder forums. A similar approach applies to Broadcasting professionals especially the ones involved in "technical aspects of broadcasting" who have to deal with convergence but are always caught up in fixing the crisis created by the public broadcasting or media owners failing to adopt convergence, not just in terms of 'converged technology', but also convergence in their operations: (n) Encouraging national professional bodies for media practitioners to participate in setting standards in broadcasting. Also encourage media training institutions to provide structured specialized programmes that cater for people with talent for creative writing, film production, animation creative and technical aspects of broadcasting Lastly, there is no mention of Freedom of Information as a concept. Only "Access to Information" is covered and in reference to making government websites accessible and sharing government content with private sector for reuse.
