[kictanet] KICTANet Institutional Assessment

[Rebecca Wanjiku]

  The Kenya ICT Action Network (KICTANet) is a multi-stakeholder network with members from the private sector, civil society, media, academia and government.  It is a network of committed volunteers from organizations, networks and groups, who believe in collaborative policy advocacy activities and the sharing of resources and skills.  The advocacy activities are focused on the development and use of ICT to support poverty reduction and the transformation of livelihoods. 
   
  Recognizing this important role of ICT in our society, KICTANet is conducting two studies. One to assess the network as an institution  (institutional assessment) to establish ways to engage the stakeholders more, how it can build on successes and incorporate other issues and methods, the other is a  case study of the network , which is being conducted by Muriuki Mureithi. 
   
 In this respect, the lead consultant for the institutional assessment will be conducting interviews expected to last about 30 minutes.
  While, Muriuki Mureithi has already sent questionnaires to a number of network members. 
   
  Because KICTANet is committed to ensuring information-sharing as well as cooperative and collaborative advocacy to maximize outreach and impact, it is hoped that all members in the mailing list will actively participate in the interviews, and will attend the validation of data collected as well as dissemination workshops. 
   
  The main objective of the assessment is to establish KICTANet’s organizational strengths and weaknesses, and to develop specific recommendations of areas that will require institutional strengthening, while the case study will assist in collection of lessons learnt in MSP. 
   
  The lead consultant for the institutional assessment will be meeting with a number of the members for a one on one interview after as well as a questionnaire, which  will assist in getting the findings and backing them up with required scientific explanations.
   
  The secretariat therefore kindly requests all members to assist the two consultants with the data collection phase.
