ICT in Africa


Hi everyone- The Internet Society’s Africa Regional Bureau and the African
Union Commission (AUC) have released the results of a joint survey focusing
on the emerging challenges facing the Information and Communications
Technology (ICT) sector in Africa. The results, contained in a
report setting out the survey findings, highlight infrastructure
development as the key consideration for African ICT policymakers today
while pointing to a changing set of ICT priorities in the next three years
to include data protection and privacy, in addition to connectivity and
cyber security.
