governance etc. In addition, Listers populate ideas on the Network. So your active participation is very welcome and not just in ideas but also in research and writing of policy briefs, report writing and editing etc. We are consistently looking out for those
who can contribute. Karibu Ndugu! KICTANet is a good platform that has grown talent with some now working for multinationals and blue chip companies. And they are right here on this list<span> </span><span style="margin:0px">😊</span></span><br clear="none">
