One of the key results of the FMFI project was to expose the gap between National ICT policy and actual practice. Recommendations were made to country regulators for an enabling regulatory environment to support community owned networks in an affordable manner. A research network has been created amongst FMFI partners for ongoing collaboration, and dialogue has occurred with key telecommunication policy officials in discussing ICT for development challenges. FMFI projects work to identify and develop models and low-cost ‘shoestring’ technologies.1 digital file (66 p. : ill.)application/pdfenRURAL POPULATIONINTERNETTELECOMMUNICATIONSINFRASTRUCTUREEDUCATION NETWORKSTELECENTRESICT POLICYOUTCOME MAPPINGCONNECTIVITYANGOLAMOZAMBIQUESOUTH AFRICASOUTH OF SAHARAFinal Technical Report
