[kictanet] ICT Policy Discussions:-Overview, Thematic Topics (Day 1 to Day 10)

Wed Jun 22 14:11:27 EAT 2016

@Gitau,
Yes u will need to read the earlier mails - Governance, Institutional , Regulatory framework are actually on Day 9.
However, remember the Draft Policy Document is hosted on Jadili and anyone can actually start editing/making proposals on any issue (including Vision/Mission..)  as opposed to waiting to post against the prescribed daily thematic areas.
We tried to take care of the BOTH old-school (day by day approach on KICTAnet list) and the Dot-com approach on the Strath Jadili board (one-touch-fullblown approach).
Eventually both contributions will be collated.
rgds.

10th day is also the day we go over governance challenges to infrastructure development? , capacity to design a strategic vision for developing infrastructure etc etc...? I also suspect im reading this thread from the bottom up

Good question.  I did not explicitly allocate time for this, thinking the vision, mission hoping this will emerge from the 10Day deliberations.  
Vision, mission statements often get extremely contentious and we can easily get stuck splitting hairs on text at the expense of the bigger issues. 
That said, we shall add this on the last day (Day 10) and hope we agree on the text then :-).
