Accra, Ghana — November 2023 – Building on the resounding success of its 2023 debut, the West Africa ICT Action Network (WAICTANet) is thrilled to announce the 2nd Edition of the Ghana Digital and Financial Inclusion Roundtable, slated for August 2024. This year’s gathering promises to elevate the dialogue by bringing together fresh perspectives through new partnerships, a more comprehensive agenda, and a sharpened focus on bridging Ghana’s digital divide. With a diverse line-up of distinguished speakers, panelists, and stakeholders, the event is set to create actionable pathways toward a digitally inclusive Ghana.
The inaugural edition, held in 2023, served as a critical platform that brought together leaders from government, the private sector, civil society, and academia. Through meaningful discussions, the event highlighted both the opportunities and challenges around digital and financial inclusion in Ghana. As technology continues to shape the country’s socio-economic landscape, ensuring that every Ghanaian, particularly those in marginalized and underserved communities, can access and benefit from digital and financial services remains a key priority.
Reflecting on the impact of the first edition, Peterking Quaye, Executive Director of WAICTANet, noted, “The Ghana Digital and Financial Inclusion Roundtable has emerged as an essential forum for fostering collaborative efforts toward digital access for all. Last year’s discussions laid down a foundational roadmap, turning conversations into actionable initiatives and policy frameworks. It was inspiring to see the commitment from various stakeholders who share our vision of making digital and financial resources accessible for every Ghanaian.”
Despite significant progress, Ghana continues to face substantial hurdles in achieving universal digital and financial inclusion. While mobile connectivity has become more widespread, with approximately 53% of Ghanaians owning mobile devices, access to internet services remains limited in rural areas. This disparity not only restricts access to essential financial services but also limits social and economic empowerment in underserved communities.
Recent statistics from the National Communications Authority indicate that internet penetration in rural Ghana is as low as 20% in some regions, exposing a critical need for infrastructure and policy intervention. The lack of digital skills, limited affordability, and exclusion of women, youth, and rural populations further exacerbate the digital divide. “We’re facing an urgent need for a truly inclusive digital ecosystem,” emphasized Quaye. “Digital access is about more than just connectivity; it’s about enabling equitable participation in society and economy. This event is a rallying call for stakeholders to close the gap and ensure no one is left behind.”
This year’s discussions will be anchored in data-driven insights, highlighting the current landscape of digital and financial exclusion in Ghana. Recent research reveals that over 30% of Ghana’s rural population remains unbanked, with only 18% having access to online financial services, according to data from the Ghana Statistical Service. Such statistics underscore the importance of creating scalable, long-term solutions to integrate these communities into the digital economy. The event will also delve into policy suggestions to facilitate digital growth in Ghana’s underrepresented areas. Discussions will focus on sustainable models for expanding internet infrastructure, strategies to make digital access more affordable, and ways to build a financially inclusive ecosystem.
The 2024 Roundtable will bring together an esteemed group of thought leaders, policymakers, and innovators who are at the forefront of the digital inclusion movement. These distinguished voices will provide invaluable insights into best practices, emerging trends, and collaborative opportunities for advancing Ghana’s digital and financial access. With such an experienced and diverse panel, the roundtable will offer an unparalleled opportunity for participants to explore and address Ghana’s most pressing digital inclusion challenges.
The 2nd Edition of the Ghana Digital and Financial Inclusion Roundtable is poised to be a landmark event in advancing Ghana’s digital inclusion agenda. Through these rich and varied discussions, WAICTANet seeks to create a ripple effect that will lead to real change, propelling socio-economic growth, digital literacy, and financial empowerment for all Ghanaians. “This year, we’re taking the conversation to a new level with a focus on action and implementation,” Quaye concluded. “The 2024 event isn’t just a forum to discuss barriers. It’s a platform for developing and committing to solutions that will drive a digitally inclusive future for Ghana.”
WAICTANet is also excited to announce collaborations with a range of new partners for the 2024 event. These include influential stakeholders from government bodies, telecommunications firms, financial institutions, and innovation hubs, both local and international. By bringing together resources and expertise from diverse sectors, these partnerships aim to foster a cohesive approach to advancing digital inclusion across the nation. The agenda for this year’s roundtable is designed to be more expansive, focusing on practical, ground-level solutions that address Ghana’s unique digital inclusion challenges.

As we mark this year’s International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, it is crucial to remember that poverty is not just about lacking money—it is about a denial of rights, dignity, and opportunities. This year’s theme, “Ending Social and Institutional Maltreatment: Acting Together for Just, Peaceful, and Inclusive Societies,” draws attention to a critical issue: the hidden dimensions of poverty, where individuals are marginalized not only economically but also through social and institutional maltreatment. These injustices trap people in a cycle of exclusion.

At WAICTANet, we firmly believe that technology can play a transformative role in breaking this cycle. In the Mano River Union (MRU) region, where millions still face hardship, digital innovation provides a pathway to inclusion, especially for our youth. Technology offers them a chance to develop vital skills, access opportunities, and build sustainable livelihoods. This is why we are committed to ensuring that young people across the MRU region gain the digital knowledge and skills necessary to thrive.

As Regional Director, I have personally seen the impact that ICT can have. From rural communities to underserved urban areas, young people are harnessing the power of technology to access education, find employment, and create new opportunities for themselves and their families. These stories are inspiring, but they are not enough. We must scale up these efforts if we are to make a meaningful impact.

WAICTANet is ready to work with governments, international organizations, and private sector partners to remove the barriers that prevent wider access to ICT. Whether through improving infrastructure, ensuring affordable connectivity, or expanding digital literacy programs, we must work together to close the digital divide. Special attention must be given to marginalized groups, particularly women and rural youth, who too often are left behind.

Let us be clear: investing in our youth is not just a responsibility, but an opportunity. By equipping them with the tools to succeed, we are planting the seeds for a more just, peaceful, and inclusive society. This is not just a goal—it is a necessity if we are to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 16) and create societies where every person can live with dignity.

In closing, WAICTANet reaffirms its commitment to fighting poverty through ICT and empowering young people to be the drivers of change. But we cannot do this alone. We call on all partners and stakeholders to join us in this mission. Together, we can ensure that no young person is left behind and that technology becomes a force for good, driving us towards a future free from poverty and exclusion.

As we commemorate the International Day of Rural Women, we at the West Africa ICT Action Network (WAICTANet) recognize the indispensable contributions of rural women as custodians of food security, biodiversity, and community health. This year’s theme, “Empowering Rural Women for a Sustainable Future,” resonates deeply with our mission to uplift rural women across West Africa by equipping them with the digital and financial tools they need to thrive in today’s rapidly evolving world.

Rural women, who make up 22% of the global population, are the backbone of their communities, ensuring food production, care, and natural resource management. Yet, they face immense challenges, from poverty to limited access to essential services, education, and economic opportunities. The digital divide further widens these disparities. At WAICTANet, we believe that bridging this divide is crucial to achieving true gender equality and sustainable development.

Our organization is committed to aligning its efforts with the urgent need to empower rural women through ICT and digital literacy. We have seen first-hand the transformative power of these skills in helping women not only generate income but also take control of their futures. By offering training in ICT, digital entrepreneurship, and financial literacy, we are enabling rural women to connect to wider markets, access financial services, and participate in the digital economy.

Peterking Quaye, our Regional Director, emphasizes, “Empowering rural women with digital and financial skills is not just a moral imperative—it is a necessary step towards achieving sustainable development in our sub-region. We need to ensure that no woman is left behind as the world transitions to a more digitally driven future.”

In collaboration with local and international partners, WAICTANet remains steadfast in driving impactful projects that elevate rural women, offering training and resources to enhance their socio-economic prospects. From digital skills workshops to initiatives supporting financial inclusion, we are helping to build climate resilience, conserve biodiversity, and foster economic independence among the women we serve.

As we look to the future, we call on donors, partners, and stakeholders to join us in expanding these efforts. Together, we can harness the power of technology to transform the lives of rural women, creating a more equitable and sustainable future for all.

On this International Day of Rural Women, let us celebrate their strength, resilience, and invaluable role in building stronger, more sustainable communities.

The Liberia Office of the West Africa ICT Action Network (WAICTNET), a cyber-crime detection and prevention Institute, has empowered Liberian students on how to detect and prevent Internet-related fraud and bullying (attack) Student present at the training session came from the B.W. Harris Episcopal High School, University of Liberia, African Methodist Episcopal University, African Methodist Zion University, and United Methodist University. Persons not in school were also part of the empowerment Workshop. Training date was Wednesday, November 8, 2023, while the training venue was iCampus, upper Carey Street, Monrovia.

Presentations during the empowerment session.- Mr. Peterking Quaye, a Liberian expert in cyber-crime detection and prevention, Executive Director WAICTNET-Liberia’s Office. The second person was Ms. Maria Dorris Dowee, age 30, at French-owned Orange Telecommunications Company.

Portions of Mr. Quaye’s Remarks were: “At the West Africa ICT Action Network, we believe in the transformative power of knowledge. Our mission is to equip individuals and institutions with tools and insights they need to navigate the digital world confidently, know that their date is protected and their online interactions are secure….Let us leave this event not only with knowledge, but with a commitment to advocate for digital safety…and for our government to prioritize the critical aspects of digital rights”

For his Presentation, he drilled participants through terminologies used in the ICT world and provided definition of each terminology. Some of the technical digital jargons he used were: “Encryption”, “Virtual Private Network (VPN)”, and “Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)”

He defined Encryption, the main jargon of the Global ICT Day (2023) as the “processing  of data into decodable form”. “By owning or having a SmartPhone, that can connect to the Internet, you are susceptible to online fraud or bullying. And you today’s posts can be used against you tomorrow,” Mr. Quaye informed, or reminded, the participants.

He stated three leading methods for Internet-based navigators to prevent their being caught in the dragnet of cyber-criminals or attackers. “When you are online, always treat your data with utmost confidentiality. Don’t share your sensitive information with any stranger asking you to click on a link to have access to any financial or educational benefits. Another way of dodging online fraudsters or attackers confirming the source of the sent strange link through Google.com or any of the other globally known and respected social media portals. The third method is, browse with integrity by not sharing your nude photo to white man or white woman asking it as condition of sending for you for marriage,” the Liberian cyber-crime detection expert explained. “The most sophisticated method is to use a password of alphabets, numbers, and symbols,” he said. He concluded his Presentation with asking for questions or comments from members of the audience.

“Does Liberia have a Cyber-crime law?” enquired student Austin D. Soper, a member of the B.W. Harris Episcopal High School present. “Liberian does not have any law on that now. The Country signed on to the Malabo Convention against Cyber fraud or attack, but the Country has not domesticated that protocol into law yet,” Mr. Quaye responded to the student’s question.

Another B.W. Harris High School student, Hillel V. Harris, presumed the Liberian Government’s “challenge” of enforcing any Internet-related law forcefully and impartially, and added that it will be similar to the Government’s action on other laws in existence. “That makes ordinary Liberians more vulnerable to criminals during our time!” Mr. Quaye reacted. “But, advocacy by those at this event can change things for the better,” he added. For her Presentation, which lasted less than twenty minutes, Ms. Maria Dorris Dowee started with inspiring the audience on her journey to “professional life”.

“During my high school days, I developed interest in Engineering on advice from female professional Engineers I interacted with. For my university education, I chose Electronic Engineering. Now, I am a member of the Liberia Society of Women Engineers,” she narrated. She said many Liberian girls and women become prey to male online fraudsters or attackers because of their little or no respect to their womanhood. “Many of my female colleagues share their nude or naked photos to foreigners who request them as condition of financial assistance or for marriage. Some Liberian men do that, too. Women in this hall, don’t post your nakedness photo to any man for anything—money or marriage,” she advised.

At the end of the empowerment session, WAICTANET’s Executive Director promised Certificates of Participation, days after the session, for each of the students that attended the 2023’s edition of the Global Encryption Day observance in Liberia

The West Africa ICT Action Network (WAICTANet) is proud to announce that it will host Global Encryption Day 2024 in Liberia on October 21st. This marks the fourth consecutive edition of the event organized by WAICTANet, reaffirming its leadership in promoting digital security, privacy, and encryption awareness in Liberia and the wider West African region. This year’s event promises to be particularly special, featuring expanded partnerships, including strong support from the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications of Liberia, which has endorsed the initiative as vital to Liberia’s digital future.

Global Encryption Day is a global initiative designed to raise awareness of the importance of encryption in protecting privacy, ensuring data security, and fostering trust in the digital world. Encryption has become increasingly significant as individuals, businesses, and governments face mounting cyber threats. For over three years, WAICTANet has been at the forefront of promoting encryption as a critical component of Liberia’s and West Africa’s digital resilience.

Peterking Quaye, Executive Director of WAICTANet, highlighted the importance of this year’s event, noting the evolving digital landscape and the need for stronger digital protections in the region.

“Global Encryption Day 2024 comes at a time when the importance of encryption cannot be overstated. Cybersecurity challenges in West Africa are growing, and it is crucial that we build a foundation of trust through strong encryption policies and practices. This year’s event is unique not only because it is our fourth edition but also because we are seeing unprecedented collaboration between civil society, government, and the private sector. With the support of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, we aim to push the boundaries of encryption advocacy, ensuring that Liberia is at the forefront of digital security discussions in Africa,” Quaye stated.

While Global Encryption Day has always focused on raising awareness about encryption’s role in securing communications and data, the 2024 edition hosted by WAICTANet will bring new dimensions to the conversation. This year, the event will emphasize collaboration between government agencies, civil society organizations, private sector stakeholders, and international partners to develop more robust encryption frameworks in Liberia.

With cyber threats becoming more sophisticated, protecting sensitive data, ensuring the privacy of digital communications, and safeguarding national infrastructure have become essential. This year’s event will feature expert discussions on the latest encryption technologies, best practices in digital security, and the role of governments in promoting and supporting encryption as a vital tool for national security.

The support from the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications has been a critical factor in elevating the event’s profile. The ministry recognizes the need for encryption policies that align with international best practices and foster a secure environment for businesses and individuals to thrive in the digital age. A representative from the Ministry shared their perspective on the partnership with WAIAN for this year’s event:

“We are pleased to support Global Encryption Day 2024 as part of our commitment to improving Liberia’s digital infrastructure. Encryption is a key pillar of our digital strategy, and we believe this event will help shape the future of digital security in Liberia. WAICTANet’s continued leadership on this issue has been instrumental in advancing the dialogue around encryption in our country,” said a spokesperson from the Ministry. Since WAIAN first hosted Global Encryption Day in Liberia, the event has steadily grown in influence, attracting attention from key players across the region. Over the past three years, WAICTANet has used the platform to highlight the importance of digital privacy and security to businesses, civil society organizations, and individuals alike.

In its previous editions, the event brought together tech experts, policymakers, and advocacy groups to discuss challenges and opportunities related to encryption in West Africa. Each year, the discussions have resulted in actionable insights, from promoting end-to-end encryption for personal and professional communications to advocating for stronger digital rights legislation.

“It has been an incredible journey hosting Global Encryption Day for the past three years. We have seen the conversation around encryption grow from a niche topic to a national priority. This year’s event is a continuation of that mission, but with even more urgency as we aim to address the evolving threats posed by cybercrime and data breaches. We want to ensure that every Liberian understands the importance of encryption in protecting their personal information and securing the digital economy.”

This year’s event promises a diverse and engaging lineup of activities, including panel discussions, keynote addresses from cybersecurity experts, workshops on encryption best practices, and interactive demonstrations. Participants will have the opportunity to learn about the latest encryption technologies and tools, as well as how to apply them in both personal and professional settings.

In addition, WAICTANet will facilitate discussions around policy development, helping governments and businesses understand the importance of adopting encryption-friendly policies that protect digital communications and data while supporting innovation. As part of its ongoing commitment to raising awareness about encryption and digital rights, WAICTANet will also work with partners to develop public education materials that explain encryption in clear, accessible terms, ensuring that all Liberians, regardless of technical expertise, can participate in and benefit from the digital age.

As Global Encryption Day 2024 approaches, WAICTANet remains committed to its vision of a secure, resilient digital future for Liberia and the West African region. By continuing to advocate for strong encryption practices, the organization seeks to build a foundation of trust that will enable individuals, businesses, and governments to fully embrace the opportunities of the digital age.

Peterking Quaye concluded with an optimistic outlook for Liberia’s digital future:
“We are building momentum toward a more secure and inclusive digital society. Encryption is at the heart of that effort, and Global Encryption Day 2024 will serve as a catalyst for further progress. Together with the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications and our partners, we look forward to leading Liberia into a new era of digital security.”

Dakar, Senegal – September 2024 marks a significant milestone for digital rights in Africa as the 11th edition of the Forum on Internet Freedom in Africa (FIFAfrica) takes place from September 24-27 in Dakar, Senegal. For the first time, the event is being hosted in Francophone Africa, underscoring the continent’s growing commitment to digital inclusion and democratic governance in the digital space. This year’s event, themed “Growing the #InternetFreedomAfrica Community,” holds special importance for stakeholders across Africa, including the Mano River Union (MRU) region, where efforts to bridge the digital divide are critically needed.

Among the key voices at the event is Peterking Quaye, Executive Director of the West Africa ICT Action Network (WAIAN), a leading advocacy organization focusing on ICT policy and digital transformation across West Africa. Quaye’s participation in this year’s forum is generously sponsored by Enabel, a Belgian development agency committed to fostering sustainable development through inclusive digital initiatives. Enabel’s support underscores the importance of multi-stakeholder partnerships in advancing gender equality in the digital space.

In a statement ahead of the event, Quaye expressed his enthusiasm about participating in FIFAfrica 2024, emphasizing the unique opportunity it presents for addressing critical challenges that persist in the MRU region, including Liberia, Sierra Leone, Guinea, and Côte d’Ivoire.

“This year’s FIFAfrica is pivotal, not just because it is the first to be held in Francophone Africa, but because it draws attention to the pressing need for digital equity across the continent, particularly in underrepresented regions like the Mano River Union,” said Peterking Quaye. “WAIAN has long been advocating for digital rights and inclusion in the MRU, and FIFAfrica provides a powerful platform for us to collaborate with other thought leaders and stakeholders to address the gender digital divide that disproportionately affects women and girls in our region.”

Why FIFAfrica 2024 is Special for the MRU Region and Beyond

For years, the Forum on Internet Freedom in Africa has been a hub for digital rights advocates, policymakers, and stakeholders to explore solutions to issues such as internet shutdowns, online censorship, and the growing importance of data protection. This year’s edition, however, brings with it a unique focus on Francophone Africa—a region often overshadowed in global digital rights conversations.

Senegal, known for its progressive stance on digital policies, offers an ideal backdrop for these discussions. With a focus on strengthening digital democracy and combating the digital gender divide, this year’s forum is particularly special for regions like the MRU, where digital infrastructure remains uneven, and access to technology is often limited for women and marginalized communities.

Quaye will be contributing to one of the most anticipated sessions at FIFAfrica: “Closing the Gender Digital Gap: A Collaborative Approach,” hosted by Enabel. This session will explore strategies for addressing the digital gender divide by enhancing access to digital tools, improving digital skills, and raising awareness about digital rights—areas where WAIAN has been actively involved.

The Significance of Enabel’s Sponsorship

Peterking Quaye’s participation at FIFAfrica 2024 is made possible through sponsorship from Enabel’s Digital for Girls and Women (D4GW) project. The project, which operates in Burkina Faso and Uganda, aims to equip women and girls with digital tools and skills in a safe environment, enabling them to participate more fully in the digital economy.

“Enabel’s sponsorship is a testament to the growing recognition of the need for collaborative efforts to close the gender digital gap, particularly in regions where digital access is not just a luxury but a lifeline for economic and social empowerment,” Quaye noted. “This sponsorship enables WAIAN to represent the voices of women and girls in the MRU region, where access to technology can significantly improve livelihoods and educational opportunities.”

Quaye’s involvement in the session will bring attention to the MRU region’s specific challenges in terms of digital inclusion, including limited infrastructure, lack of access to affordable internet, and the need for comprehensive policies that support women and girls in leveraging technology for development.

As the digital landscape continues to evolve, the impact of events like FIFAfrica cannot be overstated. Quaye believes that the discussions and collaborations fostered at the forum will have a lasting impact on digital policies across Africa, particularly in regions like the MRU.

“We need to recognize that digital inclusion is no longer optional—it is essential for sustainable development,” Quaye said. “The MRU region, with its unique socio-economic challenges, stands to benefit immensely from the insights and partnerships forged at FIFAfrica. By working together with international stakeholders, we can ensure that digital rights are protected, and that everyone—regardless of gender or location—has equal access to the opportunities offered by the digital age.”

With the MRU region at a critical juncture in its digital development, Quaye’s contributions to the forum highlight the growing importance of inclusive digital policies in fostering long-term socio-economic growth. As WAIAN continues to advocate for equitable access to technology, its participation in FIFAfrica 2024 marks another step toward bridging the gender digital divide and building a more inclusive digital future for West Africa.
