She said an example of such partnership was the Rural Telephony project in Ghana that is connecting some 2000 cell sites to connect some five million currently unconnected people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd we have noticed that no matter how high the capacity is; it always gets used up so there is a business case to be made for extending connectivity to all parts of the continent. If it works in Ghana then it can work everywhere. Once it\u2019s there, they will use it and we need to find a way to make them utilise that infrastructure that has been put in place,\u201d she noted.<\/p>\n<p>She said digital literacy was therefore also critical to get the people to take advantage of the infrastructure. \u201cIt can be there and they will only use it for phone calls and WhatsApp messages, but they need to be taught what other uses they can put that infrastructure to.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnce the infrastructure is there, with some basic instruction, they would know how to use social marketing to get the goods to market and to use the digital financial tools to pay for it seamlessly,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Data sovereignty\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Commenting on data sovereignty on the continent, Ms Owusu said data sovereignty was important, as countries needed to know where their data was being stored, how it was being stored and who has access or control over it.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ads.graphic.com.gh\/www\/delivery\/lg.php?bannerid=0&amp;campaignid=0&amp;zoneid=5&amp;loc=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.graphic.com.gh%2Fbusiness%2Fbusiness-news%2Fbig-tech-companies-must-contribute-to-expand-connectivity-infrastructure-ursula-owusu.html&amp;referer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.graphic.com.gh%2Fbusiness.html&amp;cb=86de8305e4\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>She said she was therefore in support of data sovereignty on the continent \u201cbut also allow some flexibility that would allow African countries share data among themselves\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFortunately we have already started having those conversations on a regional level but before you can even have that conversation, you need to know where your data is, how it is being handled and protected, how individual rights are also being protected by those who are handling that data locally.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo data protection laws are very important and every nation needs to have it, but it needs to be flexible enough to also create room for some data to be utilised regionally,\u201d she stated.<\/p>\n<p>She said within the auspices of the Smart Africa Alliance, the region was already working along those lines and developing a Data Cloud Policy for the African region as part of the Africa Alliance countries which are about 33.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ads.graphic.com.gh\/www\/delivery\/lg.php?bannerid=0&amp;campaignid=0&amp;zoneid=11&amp;loc=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.graphic.com.gh%2Fbusiness%2Fbusiness-news%2Fbig-tech-companies-must-contribute-to-expand-connectivity-infrastructure-ursula-owusu.html&amp;referer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.graphic.com.gh%2Fbusiness.html&amp;cb=0406e91074\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cSo that is a significant number of residents or citizens on the African continent that we represent so if these 33 are able to align their policies around data usage, rationalisation, storage and sovereignty and can build trust on how we utilise that, then we have come a long way towards integrating the continent in a practical way.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo we need to begin to build the framework, which will enable us to integrate our systems globally,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>source:www.graphic.com.gh<\/p>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MINISTER of Communications and Digitalisation, Ursula Owusu, says all value added service providers in the digital space must contribute towards expanding connectivity infrastructure in Africa.
