Recommendations for increasing advancement of ICT:
Effective ICT Policy
Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs) are serving an important
role in the transformation of the African continent: Health, Education, Agriculture,
Government services, and many more…

• Common ICT policies include creating a regulator and licensing scheme, investment or assistance in the construction
of infrastructure, introducing ICT programs into schools, and creating initiatives to promote universal access to these

how companies approach their market and build their customer base.
