Nigeria as a Case Study
Keynote Speech 1 10.30 – 11.00 @ SICT Lecture Hall
Prof. Adesola Aderounmu (President, NCS)
ICT For Development in 3rd World Countries – Nigeria as a Case Study It is a known fact that one of the major actuators of any knowledge-based economy is information and communication technology (ICT). Consequently, its role in the growth and sustainable development of developing countries, Nigeria inclusive, cannot be overemphasized. This paper identifies the challenges facing Information Technology Industry in Nigeria, and discusses some strategies required to achieve the full potential of ICT as a driving force of the country’s economy. Limited and high cost of internet access, especially broadband; lack of cooperation among operators; dearth of capacity in the software sector; and struggling hardware industry, to mention but few, are some of the problems currently plaguing the growth of ICT in the country. Consequently, to move the nation forward, there is need to, amongst others, encourage public-private partnerships at the different levels of government towards spreading fibre rings throughout the country, incentivize operators to increase investment in relevant infrastructure, promote the collaborative development of open source software, encourage indigenous software developers through different incentives, encourage patronage of locally developed hardware and software, establish IT parks, and establish assembly plants for production of hardware resources.
Keynote Speech 2 12.30 – 13.00 @ SICT Lecture Hall
Prof. Ali Selamat (UTM, Malaysia)
ICT for Development in the Third World Countries – The Malaysian Story Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has increasingly become an integral component of global and economic transformations. It now serve as a yardstick for evaluating the competitiveness and accelerated level of technological change(s)of World economies. The impact of ICT diffusion in developing economies cannot be over-emphasized; yet, not all developing economies have utilized or are utilizing ICTs to effectively engender economic growth. This could be one of the major reasons behind the backwardness of some developing countries. This presentation therefore x-rays ways in which ICTs have aided a country like Malaysia to promote developments across many sectors which has empowered them to be more productive, thereby prompting economic growth and stimulating firms within and outside the country to be more competitive. This presentation would also consider how Malaysia is fully utilizing ICTs to enhance healthcare delivery, environmental sustainability, security, manufacturing, research and development. We hope that this presentation would stimulate the minds of participants to acquire greater appreciation of the potentials ICTs holds for social and economic transformations as well as the benefits that can follow for developing nations that fully exploit these benefits. We also look forward to engaging in a broader dialogue with policymakers, thought leaders and stakeholders on how governments, industries and workers can effectively collaborate to unravel the full potentials of ICTs in developing countries.
The paper discusses the attributes of Information Security as an enabler for ICT Sustainability and provides audience with an understanding of the role and potential of Information Security in information and communication technologies. From ransomware to IoT vulnerabilities, the paper outlines at a high level, key ICT infrastructures which are becoming cyber criminals’ targets and what needs to be done to mitigate cyber-attacks. The paper also looks at how Nigeria can be a supplier of “offshore information security professional services” considering the global information security professional crisis in order to come out of current economic recession. It has been estimated that there will be a global shortage of 1.5 million cyber security experts by 2020.
Title: Mapping 19th Century Black Canadians Historiography with a 21st Century Geo
Mapping Technology: The Case of the Promised Land Project The Promised Land Project: History and Historiography of the Black-Canadian Experience in Chatham-Kent's Settlements and Beyond is the result of a 2006-2012 Strategic Research Program, funded by the Social Sciences and Humanity Council of Canada (CRSH).The project’s mandate was to create a Community-University Research Alliance that would cut across disciplinary boundaries and build bridges among academics, community researchers, and students at all levels. The research eschewed 19thcentury African Canadian history from the often romanticized “Underground Railroad” narratives that portray Southern Ontario as a safe heaven, a welcoming destination of Blacks fleeing from slavery. The Promised Land findings reveal that the Chatham-Kent area was not only a crucial settlement site for early Black presence in Canada, as well, but also a site of resistance and self-determination. Using Cultural Studies framework, members of this research trace physical and intellectual trajectories of blackness, which have radiated from this little town of Southern Ontario to other parts of Canada, the United States, the Caribbean and Africa. The methodological question arising from this finding was then: How can we represent this multiple intellectual trajectories and physical migrations? In this presentation, I will not so much focus on the technological outcome of the Promised Land Project; rather, I would like to talk more about the ways in which social scientists and humanity researchers could greatly benefit from Geo Mapping technologies to study human phenomena, from history, to managing demography, to implementing appropriate and effective policies. Indeed, by using today Geo Mapping technology together with historical surveys, we were able to trace, not only key historical black Canadian figures, but also all of the places impacted by their intellectual activism.
