Alice I wish to contribute to item no 1. In mid April I was invited by MPs to work with them to develop a strategic plan on ICTs. This was a very successful event and I took the time to create a link between the efforts by stakeholders including the executive to enable the country eventually produce a legislature mandated Sessional paper on ICTs. I would like to work with Charles to maintain the momentum Cheers Muriuki Mureithi

Dear KICTANET members,

Find attached rough (ignore typo's etc) notes taken during the monthly planning meeting that took place on May 4, 2005 at the jacaranda hotel.

Please note that there was a concern raised regarding the chronic absence of

some members of the network during the planning meetings and I would wish to

take this opportunity to encourage network members to at least attend or send their proxy to attend these monthly planning meetings, which are used for brainstorming and strategic planning.

Also kindly note urgent action points: 1. Awareness creation campaign parliamentary group that is being coordinated

by KIF, Charles could you kindly send an update to the list. 2. Fundraising activities, members responsible, Florence, Brian, Willie, Alice, and PS ministry information and communication. I shall share the draft proposal with you all shortly

thanks, if there are any comments/clarifications please let me know

kind regards A. Wanjira Munyua National Coordinator, Catalysing Access to ICTs in Africa (CATIA) Association for Progressive Communications (APC) alice@apc.org http://www.apc.org http://www.catia.ws
