REPORT: State of Internet Freedoms in East Africa 2014 @cipesaug #netfreedom
by Joly MacFie May 27, 2014

May 27, 2014

Hat tip to Anne Lord, who has stepped up as Senior Manager, Chapter Development (Africa & Middle East) for the Internet Society while Christine Saegesser Baethge is on maternity leave, and who passed this along. Several of the authors are Internet Society Chapter leaders in the respective countries. As Internet connectivity improves in the region there are deep-seated regulatory, business, and social issues that will need to be resolved.This brief yet detailed report does not pull its punches in mapping the way forward. Let's hope that it has the impact it deserves. joly posted: "On May 23 2014 the Collaboration on International ICT Policy in East and Southern Africa (CIPESA) launched The State of Internet Freedoms in East Africa research report which is an investigation into the policies and practices defining internet freedom " New post on *ISOC-NY NOTICE BOARD* [image: State of Internet Freedoms in East Africa 2014]<http://www.cipesa.org/?wpfb_dl=76>On May 23 2014 the Collaboration on International ICT Policy in East and Southern Africa <http://www.cipesa.org/> (CIPESA) launched *The State of Internet Freedoms in East Africa <http://www.cipesa.org/?wpfb_dl=76>*research report which is an investigation into the policies and practices defining internet freedom in East Africa, specifically *Burundi*, *Ethiopia*, *Kenya*, *Rwanda*, *Tanzania* and *Uganda* over the period *2010 to April 2014*. The report comes up with a number of specific recommendations for regulatory reform to protect user freedom, and also suggests an education program amongst regulators and others on the primacy of usercentricity and transparency in fostering a thriving network, with the consequent economic and social benefits. Also on May 23, a full day conference <http://www.cipesa.org/?wpfb_dl=77>in Kampala, Uganda discussed the report. Unfortunately,to our knowledge, there is no recording available.
