| dc.description.abstract | The digitization of heritage and knowledge sources has been adopted relatively recently in Africa. Digitization has depended largely on external funding through grants from foreign trusts, overseas educational institutions such as universities, and foreign governments; this has yet to be adopted as common practice throughout the continent. Public Private Partnerships (PPP) combining grants and private investment are also widely used. Adoption has been fragmented as some countries have very little ICT infrastructure. Some African governments have introduced digitization in the implementation of large ICT-based projects. The Kenyan Government, an example of this, has published digital versions of parliamentary procedures, national census data and government expenditure data in order to fulfil, among other goals, its constitutional commitment to citizens’ rights of access to government information (Kenya Open Data Project, 2011: 6). | en_ZA |
