KIGF 2013: Call for Topics
As we resolved during the last Kenya Internet Governance Forum (KIGF), the Internet Society Kenya Chapter (ISOC KE) will be convening this year's KIGF. ISOC KE formed a working group to coordinate the planning and logistics of the same. The working group has slated the KIGF to be on the 26th July 2013 at the Strathmore University Business School. The working group sat for two meetings and identified Internet Governance issues pertinent to the Internet and ICT sector in Kenya. These issues are not exhaustive and we therefore invite input from the public to propose topics of interest to be discussed at the KIGF. The topics can be drawn from the main IGF themes or any issues that are of interest to Kenyans. Some of the topical areas proposed by the working group are: Electronic Voting CyberSecurity Social Media: Digital Migration Legal Issues: Intellectual Property Rights, Data protection bill, E-commerce E-governance ICT and Education Connectivity Strategies: Emphasis in connecting the Counties Universal Access: Universal Access Fund Smart Cities: Konza as a case study WCIT: Taking stock Please send your suggestions by replying to this email on or before Monday 13th May. Looking forward to your contributions. Kindest Regards, Paul Muchene Chair, KIGF Working Group
Muchene and All, My input is about changing the scope of ICF usual engagement and tightening the dialogue towards: 1. Decentralizing and devolution of ICT into all county government Agenda; that where the debate is ripe and intensity is needed e.g. how would West Pokot, Tana River, Turkana, Marsabit among other county embark on this drive toward their development. 2. The need to reunite with the responsibilities of the county government with ICT and how it will be key in facilitating delivery of the outcomes and output for the governor. I hope it will make up the agenda. On Mon, May 6, 2013 at 10:53 AM, Paul M <paulitrix@gmail.com> wrote:

The Kenya ICT Action Network (KICTANet) is a multi-stakeholder platform for people and institutions interested and involved in ICT policy and regulation. The network aims to act as a catalyst for reform in the ICT sector in support of the national aim of ICT enabled growth and development.
KICTANetiquette : Adhere to the same standards of acceptable behaviors online that you follow in real life: respect people's times and bandwidth, share knowledge, don't flame or abuse or personalize, respect privacy, do not spam, do not market your wares or qualifications.
I think you can add devolution to the list, though it can be a cross-cutting issue across some of what's on the list already. We could look at the role of ICT - in facilitating citizen participation in governance; enhancing service delivery; business opportunities - are companies/professionals/public ready to engage?
