dc.description.abstract | Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) exhibits many ‘telecoms paradox’ deficits and outcomes, preventing it from accessing and using broadband services. Together with competition at landing stations, open access has ‘first tier' access to the development of backhaul access and national fibre infrastructure and development. The recent formation of UbuntuNet Alliance as a dedicated regional consortium to purchase capacity and access to undersea-cable is a significant development. The paper provides an overview of open educational resources, research networks and ICT development in terms of broadband infrastructure, access and capacity in African countries. | en |
