Building
human and institutional capacity
|
Goal… To build human and institutional capacity
necessary for effective participation in treaty-making,
standards-setting and formulation of protocols.
Strategies… Developing training modules on
treaty-making, standards-setting and policy formulation;
organising information, education and communication
programmes; and developing a database of professionals,
practitioners and consultants involved in all aspects of
ICT.
|
While public institutions in Africa are no longer as directly
involved in the provision of information and communication
technology (ICT) services, they still have an important role to play
in development of the private sector, principally to regulate and
promote its development. Unfortunately, public institutions in many
African countries have not been adequately strengthened to undertake
their new functions, due to a lack of funds and other problems.
Our success critically depends on the capacity of individuals and
institutions that collaborate with ATU in various core activity
programmes.
What we do
Through this programme, ATU facilitates initiatives to build the
capacity of individuals and institutions in making treaties, setting
standards, formulating policy, drafting regional integration
protocols and attracting investment.
To realise our goal, we are…
-
Developing training
modules on ICT treaty-making, standards-setting and policy
formulation.
-
Organising - in
collaboration with partners - information, education and
communication programmes on issues related to ICTs.
-
Developing a database
of professionals, practitioners and consultants involved in all
aspects of ICT.
Core activity partners
To realise the programme’s goal, we cooperate with the African
Union and other relevant organisations including…
