Purpose
The purpose of the meeting was to exchange information about the activities on the ground in Kenya, starting with the School Connectivity activities in the country. GIGAconnect has connected 100 schools, while AHERI & BasicInternet connected 45 school, being a good basis for exchange of lessons learned. Furthermore, ITU having the direct entry to the governments and AHERI and Basic Internet focussing on the community approach to drive the demand, we have a perfect match to boost digital inclusion.
During the meeting, we experience various areas of common interest and agreed to both physical and virtual follow-up meetings to be able to dive into details.
The following Action Items have been agreed:
- Kagwiria and Robert to meet in Nairobi for an exchange of the School Connectivity projects
