It seems the Jadili annotations are not included and glad it is a draft document as some omited some proposals. I hope the final report will include these:<div><br></div><div>(1). Public Participation: A major change brought about by the 2010 Constitution was the concept of "self governance" by the people through devolution; where public participation was identified as mandatory component in every development or governance process. As a result, County laws are already mandated the use of ICTs in achieving public participation in governance. The ICT Policy 2016 needs to guide the achievement of citizen participation in governance and in enhancing transparency; These are major policy challenges in under the 2010 Constitution and Vision 2030. The policy may treat the self-governance/public participation concept either as a cross-cutting issue or as a key objective; but at the very minimum, it should explicitly facilitate research and programmes that seek to apply ICT in delivering the Constitutional dream of self-governance and public participation.</div><div><br></div><div>2. IoT and Cryptocurrencies were mentioned but there are capacity challenges in areas such as robotics, artificial intelligence, augmented reality that will need to be deliberately tackled through research and projects supported through the final ICT Policy 2016. </div><div><br></div><div>I hope this late additions add value to the process.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div><div><div>Wainaina</div><div><br>On Friday, July 15, 2016, Judy Okite via kictanet <<a href="mailto:kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke">kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div><div> thank you Barrack and Walu,<br><br></div>Does this include the observations shared on the Jadili platform?<br><br></div>Kind Regards,<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><h1 style="margin:0px"><font size="1"><i><span style="font-weight:normal">'Chance Favors the prepared mind'</span></i></font><font size="2"><i> </i><span style="font-weight:normal">-<font size="1"> Louis Pasteur</font></span></font><br></h1></div></div></div>
