Dear Listers,

Ms. Josephine Miliza, KICTANet's Africa policy coordinator for the
APC-LOCNET project, has written on "Enabling Telecom Regulatory Frameworks
for #CommunityNetworks in Africa."

She shares examples from Kenya, Uganda, and Zimbabwe where she argues that
even with the progress, the policy and regulatory environments in many
African states are still unsupportive thus threatening the scalability and
sustainability of community networks.

The essence of #CommunityNetworks is more than the infrastructure. It’s
giving communities power to self-determination, to build/adapt/use
technologies that reflect their values, needs, and priorities.

The Local Networks (LocNet) initiative, is being led by APC in partnership
with Rhizomatica.  Here is the link https://bit.ly/3DlG56W
