The indaba is running under the theme “Connecting the Unconnected: Bridging the Digital Divide” which was motivated by the pressing need to address the digital disparities prevalent within Zimbabwean communities.
A key focus of the indaba will be to explore innovative solutions, regulatory strategies, and collaborative efforts aimed at bridging the digital divide within the Zimbabwean context. Participants will engage in discussions on the state of digital inclusion and exclusion as well as possible collaborative solutions amongst stakeholders as well as policy and regulatory frameworks to promote digital inclusion efforts.
