<p class="ecxMsoNormal">Connected Kenya this year wants to
explore the theme of getting Citizen to “Self Serve”<span style=""> </span>through provision of e-government services.
The theme is “Bridging the service gap”</p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><br></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal">In the spirit of consultation, and in recognizing the valuable ideas from the different sectors of the community, the ICT Authority <b>would like to get industry thoughts and views on what they
perceive as barriers to the achievement of ‘self-services’ to mwananchi <span style=""> </span>in Kenya. </b></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><br></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal">What can government do in terms of
policies, implementation of projects, engagement to further this agenda? <span style=""> </span>And what role does the Private sector also
play and how can both come together to further the interest of getting the
citizen to access services at the comfort of their homes?</p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><br></p>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal">We request that for the next five days, you kindly feel feel free to contribute and help the Authority shape up the agenda for this important conference. Phyllis from ICTA will collate all your ideas. </p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><br></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal">Asanteni sana.</p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><br></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal">Rgds</p><p class="ecxMsoNormal">Grace</p>
