[kictanet] Kictanet alive.. kickin, or kicked into KICTAnet 2.0

Fri Apr 13 12:04:08 EAT 2012

Ben

This is a powerful testimony.  I do also know of a PhD student whose core dataset is the KICTAnet archives.   And others who got jobs/scholarships arising from KICTAnet posts.  I think these are some of the stories that we want to hear from the "horses" mouth...

However, on the flip-side, I think we should also welcome the negative experiences - or challenges as it were - so that we can improve going forward.

nb: ave taken the liberty to tweak the subject to include KICTAnet 2.0

Hi All,

My name is Ben Akoh and I am one of many lurkers on this list, and on many
others. I am not Kenyan, I have visited the country several times, I will
be visiting it in the next month, I love it, its people, and have very
good friends there.

I participated in one of the earlier public forums that helped to shape
Kictanet and that fed into the numerous fiber initiatives to which you and
most of us now enjoy: directly when we visit the country, and indirectly
when we interact with good people like yourselves who continue to pave the
way for how public consultation can shape future growth and development.

My comments are along three lines:

1. The benefits of lurkers: Being a lurker is not necessary a bad thing.
Some of us continue to benefit from this list and learn good practices
that inform public policy in many other areas. For instance, the Kictanet
model is replicated across several national discussion lists in West
Africa and have been suggested as a useful model for public consultation
on policy issues. Lurkers benefit through propagate the good dialogues
that emanate from this group in other forums beyond yours. See this as
Kenya's export to the knowledge and information economy.

2. Questioning is good: Seeking ways through which this forum would become
more relevant is also not necessarily a bad thing. Questioning leads to
improvement. The day that every member of this group thinks that the list
has arrived (group think), is the day it begins to slowly die a death.
Thus, a constant review, as someone mentioned, against Kictanet's initial
objectives is a good starting point; documenting its progress over the
years through careful research (as another person mentioned) is also
important. But significant consideration should be given to the  medium of
delivery and how this is relevant to the context of the times. "The medium
is the message" (Marshall McLuhan). The medium should thus respond to the
demands of the time. Considerations should be given to those for whom
policy is deliberated but who do not have access to deliberate in its
present form.

3. Kicktanet is one of several model that works: I am currently finalizing
a toolkit (ebook and wiki) of several models that have worked for
generating evidence and for seeking consent of those whom policy will
affect using case studies of good practice models implemented  across the
world. Kictanet and this discussion list is featured prominently as one of
them. I hope to share the outcome of this research once it has been
published.

In sum, all these go to say that:

1. The list is useful to both lurkers and active members.
2. Its influence transcends Kenya and contributes to shaping policy and
policy consultation beyond its borders.
3. The medium should respond to the dynamic context of communication
technologies, and cater to the local context as well as the growing needs
of its audience - present and future. It should therefore be shaped
accordingly.

My two bob.

Ben
A lurker.
