Areas of Usage
  • The purpose is to build a model that can be used
    for
  • Pre project evaluation
  • Monitoring
  • Post project evaluation
  • Analysis - Comparison over time

Field study
  • Methods
  • Interviews
  • Survey
  • Impact study
  • Conference
  • Major findings
  • More local policies and strategies
  • National Content, Languages
  • What did we remove, Anna?
  • Info on three levels, international, national,
    local/project specific
  • Result two separate presentational approaches,
    with three levels

    will run all the analysis online)

Analysis with online model
  • Overall (this text in notes in final
    version)
  • Sstrengths in the Institutional Framework and
    services
  • users are average
  • infrastructure is relatively weaker
  • both compared to the average of the group as well
    as compared to the top level values
  • Institutional Framework
  • the relative strength is in policies and
    institutions
  • regulation and governance indicators are average
  • whereas the business environment is relatively
    poor
  • Infrastructure
  • Power supply is relatively strong and so is
    physical delivery
  • Internet and telephone indicators are weak
  • Services
  • human capital is strong,
  • public services on average
  • private services very poor
  • Users
  • the strength is in education and language skills,

10
Comparison with Burundi and South Africa
  • When comparing with South Africa, Tanzania is
    equally strong in the institutional framework,
    but notably lagging in all the other categories
    in particular services and user side.
  • South Africa has much stronger results compared
    to the other countries in the model, especially
    for services and users. This highlights a
    drawback with the normalisation that we have
    used, a best case ranking. In relation South
    Africas values are much higher which leads to
    low values for the remaining countries.
  • Burundi, Tanzania is relatively strong in most
    aspects in particular the category USERS, but
    with the exception of INFRASTRUCTURE, where they
    are equally poor. At the same time this is the
    area where Burundi has its relative strength.

Indicators
  • Institutional Framework
  • Policies
  • Institutions
  • ICT Regulation
  • Business environment
  • Governance Indicator

12
  • Infrastructure
  • Power Supply
  • Internet
  • Telephone
  • Physical Delivery

13
  • Services
  • Private ICT services
  • Public ICT services
  • Quality/Availability of professional

14
  • Users
  • Equipment
  • Education and Language skills
  • Affordability
  • Presumptive numbers of users

15
Analysis using in-depth model
  • Institutional Framework (lägg mesta av texten I
    notes eller använd till bilder ovan!!)
  • There is a national policy no local or sectorial
    policies, no strategies on how to work with ICT
    projects.
  • If all indicators was included in online model.
    Tanzanias relative strength in Institutional
    framework would probably have dropped.
  • Infrastructure
  • more IXPs than expected
  • little electrical power
  • few mainlines for telephony
  • low levels of Cable TV
  • The road network is not so developed
  • However, railroad system is pretty good,
    opportunity.
  • Services side
  • The number of private services is increasing
  • Public services are increasing
  • the human skills level offer some hope
  • Users
  • No clear message
  • Low values on equipment and affordability
  • Other subcategories not so strong
  • English capability is an advantage though.

16
Conclusions Future suggestions
  • Pilot model work but can be refined (move
    text to notes)
  • The model is flexible, but still has some
    stability and consistency
  • Online model gives a broad overview of the
    relative situation of a country, internal and
    external
  • Online can be be used for monitoring, post
    project evaluation and impact analysis in depth
    list is better.
  • Improvements
  • Widen focus more broadly on ICT.
  • To incorporate alternative strategies and
    business models.
  • Gender indicators
  • Time series data
  • A wider selection of countries
  • Users could select which countries to compare
    with
  • Additional graphical presentations, e.g. staple
    diagrams
  • Dynamic page that automatically check for updates
    from databases
  • Implications of the SIMBA model for impact
    analysis
