Internet
development
Is about the
connectivity between the computers.
Internet development is about people. Shared knowledge and collaborative
relationships are key drivers of successful internet growth and not technology
alone.
The recent
growth of the internet and the World Wide Web makes it appear that the World is
witnessing the arrival of a completely new technology. In facts, the web-now
considered to be a major driver of the way society accesses and views
information is the result of numerous projects in computer networking.
The internet
society works to foster growth and access to technology by bringing
information, training and partnerships to people and communities across the
globe. We amplify our efforts by concentrating on building projects focused on
sustainable human, technical and governance infrastructures. We believe these
three fundamental pillars are the key to successful internet development
initiatives that benefits local sculture empowers users and generate economic
growth.
The internet has
revolutionized the computer and communications world like nothing before. The
invention of the telegraph, telephone, radio and computer set the stage for
this unprecedented integration of capabilities. The internet is at once a
world-wide broadcasting capability, a mechanism for information dissemination,
and a medium for collaboration and interaction between individuals and their
computers without regard for geographic location. The internet represents one
of the most successful examples of the benefits of sustained investment and
commitment to research and development of information infrastructure.
The internet is
as much a collection of communities as a collection of technologies, and its
success is largely attributable to both satisfying basic community needs as
well as utilizing the community in an effective way to push the infrastructure
forward.
The global
internet continues to grow at an exponential rate, bringing with it new ways of
transcating, communicating, learning, socializing and transforming just about
every aspects of daily life. In Africa, despite a slow start internet use is
now rapidly accelerating and its transformative effects are increasingly
accessible.
The benefits of
increased connectivity and internet access come with the attendant challenges
of cybercrime and privacy concerns. The African Union has developed a
convention on cyber security and personal data protection that would, among
other things. Commit member states to establish legal frame works foe
e-transactions, protection of data and punishment of violation. But achieving a
secure environment and protecting privacy requires collaboration from all
internet governance actors.
To create and
enable environment, fostering development of the internet infrastructure. This
is through the growth of mobile communications and steady growths in internet
penetration are in large part attributable to efforts by African government
working in partnership with other stakeholders.
To easily access
the information that circulates within an organization. Through the internet
helps the internal publics that is the mails, memorandum, voice mails from the
top management. This helps to create effective information between the internal
and external publics.
