Kigali Protocol under revision
Comments and amendments
The protocol on the policy and regulatory framework for the NEPAD ICT Broadband Infrastructure Network (NEPAD Network) was developed by 14 countries of Eastern and Southern Africa. It is the enabling environment for the development of the continental NEPAD Network comprising of Uhurunet submarine cable and Umojanet cross-border terrestrial network
The protocol was signed in Kigali, Rwanda, by 12 countries and has so far been ratified by 8 of the 12 countries that signed it. It came into force after it was ratified by more than half of the countries that signed it, and now that it is in force, any Africa country can accede to it.
The NEPAD Planning and Coordinating Agency through its e-Africa Programme (previously known as the NEPAD e-Africa Commission), wishes to align as many African countries as possible towards the protocol, and is offering all countries across Africa an opportunity to review the protocol and propose possible amendments to it.
The Inter-Governmental Assembly (IGA), comprised of the countries that signed the protocol has already proposed some amendments to the protocol and the version of the “protocol under revision” contains the amendments proposed by the IGA.
The NEPAD Agency is therefore calling upon Ministries responsible for ICTs to involve all ICT stakeholders (ICT Policy Advisors, Regulatory bodies, telecom operators, Civil Society, Academia, ICT service providers, etc) in the review of the protocol.
Countries wishing to involve the NEPAD e-Africa Programme in their national reviews of the protocol should contact the Acting Head of the NEPAD e-Africa Programme on:
Tel: +2712 8414661,
Fax: +27128414094.
Email: [email protected] or [email protected]
On completion of the review at the country level, the Ministry responsible for ICTs should forward the proposed amendments to Dr. Edmund Katiti, the Acting Head of the NEPAD e-Africa Programme, at the above email address.
The deadline for submission of proposed amendments is June 30, 2011.
