22. Digital 2027 • To maintain the momentum towards creating an innovative and vibrant ICT sector, SADC through Regional Master Plan developed the SADC Digital 2027 to advance the country’s digital agenda. • The plan acknowledges how ICT underpins all aspects of national development – from sustaining economic prosperity and promoting human and social development to preserving the environment for future generations. • Advanced ICT is seen as crucial to an innovative, diversified economy and a high standard of living for all of SADC’s people. SADC Digital 2027 focus is on developing the best broadband infrastructure to provide a world class ICT infrastructure for government, businesses and key vertical sectors across the economy. • This will have a transformational impact to the community, whilst accelerating innovation and knowledge creation. • The SADC Digital 2027 is for a sustainable digital future and will be instrumental in improving connectivity, boosting capacity, fostering economic development, enhancing public service delivery and advancing societal benefits.

23. STATUS OF RIDMP • SADC Infrastructure Development Master Plan (RIDMP) was developed through largely funding from DFID, and partly EU and DBSA. • The plan was based on broadbased consultative process with key stakeholders and the Member States. • SADC Infrastructure Development Master Plan was adopted by Summit of Heads of State in August 2012 in Maputo, Mozambique • The Adoption of the RIDMP was followed by the Investment Conference held in July 2013 in Maputo, Mozambique

32. Regional and National Integrated Broadband Infrastructure • A fully integrated, redundant, resilient core, reliable, affordable and robust broadband infrastructure connecting even the rural or under-served areas. Connectivity for financial institutions, e-Government network. Detailed feasibility study and design concept • Stakeholders: SADC, SATA, Member States, Operators, Infrastructure Development Partners. • Estimated Required Investment: $21 Billion

33. Shared Satellite Network • Provide affordable satellite-based connectivity • solutions for remote areas outside reach of fibre • infrastructure and radio solutions (Remote • Government Offices, Research Centres, schools, clinics, meteorology stations, wildlife conservation, border post, emergency services and postal branches ) • Needs Assessment and feasibility >> satellite construction • Stakeholders: SADC, SATA, Member States Operators and Development Partners. • Estimated Required Investment: $0.94 Million

34. Regional/National Internet Exchange Points (IXPs) • National and Regional Internet and Data • Exchange Points (N/RIXPs) keep SADC traffic within the region, and to ensure efficient use of international bandwidth and maximise performance of the Internet in all SADC Member States. Currently most of the Internet Exchange is done upstream in Europe, America where most ISPs and operators by IP • Capacity • Stakeholders: SADC, SATA, Member States Operators , ISPs, and development Partners • Estimated Required Investment: $0.211 M

38. National Broadband Infrastructure • Worldwide Governments have realized the need for support in developing national broadband network infrastructures (NBNI) and not leave it to licensed operators and are taking the leading role in developing NBNI directly through funding and ownership • In many countries the national broadband network infrastructure entities have been created as a government facility provider or a consortium • This has accelerated the extending of fibre-to-the-premises and improved wireless technology

39. PIDA PAP – Implementation Achievements • All SADC Countries are connected to Submarine Cable Landing Stations • Landlocked Countries are connected to at two Submarine Cable Landing Stations • All SADC Countries are taking a leading role in developing all fibre National Broadband Infrastructure and connecting to border countries • Almost all SADC Countries except a few have National Internet Exchange points (NIXP) • ICT Enabling Environment – being implemented through various programmes, e.g Harmonization of ICT Policies in Sub-Sahara Africa (ITU and EU Funded), Regional Policy Frameworks etc

40. PIDA PAP - Needs • Projects Preparation and Implementation • Broadband Plans - national Stakeholders to take leading roles in funding broadband /communication infrastructure development • Complementary financing to finalize preparation activities for projects in the PIDA PAP's pipeline – Broadband Gaps • Strengthen and shortening the project preparation stage, facilitating loan approval and project execution. • Facilitating a more seamless transition from preparation to execution by financing additional project start-up activities where possible and make more funding available per project • Providing technical resources to assist public, private and mixed entities in the identification, development, and preparation of these PIDA PAP bankable and sustainable infrastructure projects • Providing technical cooperation resources for studies concerning regional physical integration and project preparation for cross-border infrastructure operations involving borrowing member countries.

41. Examples of Broadband Infrastructure Development and Funding Broadband Telecommunications Opportunities Program (BTOP) and the Broadband Initiatives Program (BIP) - makes available grants and loans for deploying broadband infrastructure enhancing broadband capabilities and promoting sustainable broadband adoption projects.”

43. Conclusion • All SADC ICT /PIDA PAP Projects fall within the Short Term Action Plan ( STAP) and have been planned for a 5 year period up to 2017 • The implementation of the ICT STAP will be evaluated and a New STAP developed by the Region after 2017 • SADC ICT Programme is looking for Potential Partners for DIGITAL SADC 2027 • We are ready and waiting to partner with you in implementing Digital SADC 2027
