| description |
Following the Introduction in chapter
one, the report provides a country overview in chapter two
to provide the national context. The connectivity gap has
both a supply-side and a demand-side: chapter three explores
the demand-side, focusing on ICT in the education sector and
the challenges impacting the use of information and
communication technologies for teaching, learning, and
research, creating the pull factors; and chapter four
examines the supply-side, the ICT sector's key
components and the challenges affecting high-speed
connectivity. The National Research and Education Network
(NREN), the Research and Education Network for Uganda (RENU)
is the higher education response created to close the gap
between the demand-side and the supply-side, and chapter
five presents a high-level summary of the status of RENU as
well as its achievements and limitation in delivering
high-speed connectivity to HEIs. Drawing on findings from
the earlier chapters, chapter six discusses the cost of
connecting all higher education institutions in Uganda to
high-speed Internet. The conclusion is given in chapter
