Dear Listers, Here are some of the exciting projects we're working on at KICTANet this year! - *Bridging the digital divide:* We' continuing to empower communities in Busia and Mandera counties through our digital inclusion program, ensuring access to technology and digital skills for all. - *Equipping human rights CSOs:* We are developing a training program to equip human rights organizations with the tools and knowledge they need to effectively advocate for digital rights. - *Shaping Kenya's AI future:* We're actively involved in shaping Kenya's AI governance framework, ensuring the ethical and responsible development of AI technologies. We're also hosting a webinar on "The Nexus Between Disinformation, Radicalization and Violent Extremism" jointly with the Centre for Human Rights and Policy Studies (CHRIPS) on February 5, 2025 at 12pm. And don't forget to mark your calendars for the upcoming Kenya Internet Governance Forum (KIGF) 2025!* #KIGF2025.* For more, here is a wrap of what we had in January and what we are planning ahead. <https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/2025-advancing-digital-rights-ai-governance-kenya-kictanet-p2pqf/?trackingId=eZPMZipcKZuCg9cF6Qc9kw%3D%3D> We'd love to hear from you! -- *Kind Regards,* *David Indeje* *@**KICTANet* <https://www.kictanet.or.ke/> * Communications *_____________________________________ +254 (0) 711 385 945 | +254 (0) 734 024 856 KICTANet portals Connect With Us <https://linktr.ee/Kictanet> ______________________________________
