What are the aims and objectives of the NEPAD ICT Broadband Infrastructure Network?
The NEPAD ICT Broadband Infrastructure Programme aims to connect all African countries to one another and, in turn, to the rest of the world through broadband fibre-optic submarine cables. A broadband network that links all 54 African countries will provide abundant bandwidth, easier connectivity and reduced costs. It will help to integrate the continent by facilitating trade, social, and cultural exchange between countries. The NEPAD e-Africa Commission has approached the above-mentioned priority project by working towards the development of two regional networks: • NEPAD ICT Broadband Infrastructure Network for Eastern and Southern Africa; comprising of a submarine segment, and a terrestrial segment.
