Second African Sub-Regional Forum on ICT Best Practices

The second African Sub-Regional Forum on ICT Best Practices, dedicated to the whole of East and Southern Africa, will be held in Tanzania in April 2008.

This Second Forum is an initiative of Microsoft, organised in partnership with the Government of Tanzania. The Forum also presents a unique opportunity for meetings between international financial institutions, international governmental organisations, representatives from government and civil society, as well as the private sector.

The first ICT Best Practices Forum, held in Burkina Faso in June 2007, drew over 350 delegates from across West and Central Africa, including representatives from 60 countries. The success of the first event underscored the importance of platforms such as these and the second ICT Best Practices Forum aims to build on the success of the first Forum for West and Central Africa. The ICT Best Practices Forums serve as a practical way for high level officials from different regions in Africa to share their own specific experiences and demonstrate practical examples of successful technology solutions in their respective countries.-->More information
