1. Foreword<br />

ICTs are a key factor for socio-economic development. It is therefore vital that<br />

ICTs are made accessible to all people so as to make those people have an<br />

opportunity to contribute and benefit from the socio-economic development<br />

that ICTs create.<br />

RCDF is a mechanism that UCC employs to leverage communications access to<br />

the hard-to-reach areas such as the rural areas which rema<strong>in</strong> after operators<br />

and service providers have selected their preferred areas of operation. RCDF<br />

then causes the delivery <strong>in</strong> those areas, of communications services that are<br />

similar to those ord<strong>in</strong>arily delivered by operators and service providers.<br />

To deliver communications services <strong>in</strong>to rural underserved areas of <strong>Uganda</strong>,<br />

RCDF uses <strong>district</strong>s as the build<strong>in</strong>g blocks for a more equitable delivery. In<br />

order to enhance the susta<strong>in</strong>ability of delivery of ICTs <strong>in</strong> underserved areas,<br />

RCDF forms strategic partnerships with the public and the private sector <strong>in</strong><br />

<strong>district</strong>s. Delivery of ICT services through the RCDF programme <strong>in</strong>volves<br />

several stakeholders that among others <strong>in</strong>clude the <strong>district</strong> local<br />

adm<strong>in</strong>istration, area MPs, the RDCs, local government officials such as CAOs,<br />

ICT project implementers, and most importantly, the users.<br />

Through the RCDF programme, ICT opportunities are made available to all the<br />

stakeholders <strong>in</strong> their respective sett<strong>in</strong>gs. All stakeholders therefore ought to<br />

seize the opportunity by embrac<strong>in</strong>g and <strong>in</strong>tegrat<strong>in</strong>g the ICTs made available<br />

<strong>in</strong>to their development programmes and activities. That way, the country and<br />

more specifically the rural underserved areas will achieve mean<strong>in</strong>gful socioeconomic<br />

development.<br />

1. Background<br />

The <strong>Uganda</strong> <strong>Communications</strong> Act of 1997 mandates UCC to establish and<br />

adm<strong>in</strong>isters a Universal Service Fund (USF) for communications <strong>in</strong> <strong>Uganda</strong>.<br />

UCC thus establishes and adm<strong>in</strong>isters a USF called the Rural <strong>Communications</strong><br />

Development Fund (RCDF).<br />

RCDF was created through its first RCDF Policy of 2001 whose actual<br />

implementation started <strong>in</strong> the year 2003. Under this Policy, the ma<strong>in</strong> goal of<br />

RCDF was to provide access to basic ICT to the rural and underserved<br />

communities of <strong>Uganda</strong>.<br />

Follow<strong>in</strong>g the realization of the goal of the RCDF Policy of 2001, and the<br />

changes <strong>in</strong> the external and <strong>in</strong>ternal environment of RCDF, a new policy the<br />

RCDF Policy of 2010 was adopted with its ma<strong>in</strong> goal be<strong>in</strong>g the enhancement of<br />

usage of ICT <strong>in</strong> the rural communities of <strong>Uganda</strong>.<br />

RCDF <strong>projects</strong> are established <strong>in</strong> areas where no similar ICT facilities exist and<br />

such facilities are not expected to be established <strong>in</strong> those areas <strong>in</strong> the<br />

foreseeable future.<br />

Districts are the ma<strong>in</strong> adm<strong>in</strong>istrative blocks that the RCDF programme uses <strong>in</strong><br />

order to ensure that the communication services provided are equitably<br />

distributed throughout the country.<br />

2. Introduction<br />

The RCDF program seeks to provide susta<strong>in</strong>able access to ICT services to<br />

people <strong>in</strong> rural areas. The <strong>projects</strong> are strategically located <strong>in</strong> more populated<br />

centers with relatively more commercial activity to ensure that the <strong>projects</strong> are<br />

self susta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g.<br />

A total of 40 ICT <strong>projects</strong> have been established <strong>in</strong> the <strong>district</strong> through the<br />

RCDF programme of UCC.<br />

In conjunction with various project stakeholders, UCC/RCDF determ<strong>in</strong>es a<br />

specific location for each project. The population distribution with<strong>in</strong> the <strong>district</strong><br />

as shown <strong>in</strong> Table 2 is also a key determ<strong>in</strong>ant of the location of a project.<br />

Like all other <strong>projects</strong> of RCDF, the ICT <strong>projects</strong> are established as<br />

partnerships between UCC and a private or public partner. UCC provides<br />

4


technical support and partial fund<strong>in</strong>g. The ICT facilities are wholly owned by<br />

the private partner who is obliged to ensure that the facility is available for use<br />

at all times for a given period of time, of say, 5 years. By the end of this period<br />

it is expected that the facilities have developed capacity for self susta<strong>in</strong>ability<br />

and other people are able to replicate them with<strong>in</strong> the area <strong>in</strong> order to satisfy a<br />

bigger demand.<br />

3. Projects Profile<br />

In l<strong>in</strong>e with the RCDF policy provisions, RCDF <strong>projects</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>district</strong>s of <strong>Uganda</strong><br />

have been implemented under the follow<strong>in</strong>g program areas; Internet Po<strong>in</strong>ts of<br />

Presence (POP), Public payphones, Research <strong>projects</strong>, Postal support <strong>projects</strong>,<br />

Multipurpose Community Tele - centers (MCT’s), School ICT facilities, Health<br />

Care ICT facilities, and Call Centers.<br />

The number of <strong>projects</strong> supported under each programme area is <strong>in</strong>dicated <strong>in</strong><br />

Number and type of RCDF <strong>projects</strong> <strong>in</strong> Wakiso <strong>district</strong><br />

a) Internet Po<strong>in</strong>ts of Presence (POP)<br />

5


The <strong>in</strong>ternet POPs provides a wireless connectivity network <strong>in</strong> a radius of about<br />

5-10km around the POP. People with<strong>in</strong> this area can access connectivity such<br />

as <strong>in</strong>ternet connectivity at costs, speeds and types of services that are<br />

comparable to those <strong>in</strong> the capital city Kampala.<br />

Through a competitive bidd<strong>in</strong>g process, the <strong>Uganda</strong> Telecom Ltd won the<br />

tender for subsidy to set up POP <strong>in</strong> the <strong>district</strong>.<br />

A typical POP <strong>in</strong> Tororo town<br />

The POP is designed to provide a m<strong>in</strong>imum comb<strong>in</strong>ed speed of 480Kbps.<br />

However, with the advent of new technologies on the market, the comb<strong>in</strong>ed<br />

speed and range of services provided keeps <strong>in</strong>creas<strong>in</strong>g.<br />

All who wish to make use of the POP <strong>in</strong> the <strong>district</strong> need to contact <strong>Uganda</strong><br />

Telecom Ltd. Through their own expansion programmes other operators also<br />

cont<strong>in</strong>ue to establish their own POPs <strong>in</strong> various <strong>district</strong>s of the country. It may<br />

therefore be good to check all operators <strong>in</strong> order to make a comparison for a<br />

better deal.<br />

The specific location of the RCDF supported POP <strong>in</strong> the <strong>district</strong> is as shown <strong>in</strong><br />

the Annex.<br />

b) Internet Cafes/ICT Tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g Centres<br />

6


This program provides public access to <strong>in</strong>ternet and ICT tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g services to<br />

people <strong>in</strong> the <strong>district</strong>.<br />

Like all other <strong>projects</strong> of RCDF, the facilities are established as partnerships<br />

between UCC and a private or public partner.<br />

A typical ICT tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g centre/Internet café <strong>in</strong> Amuria town, Amuria<br />

<strong>district</strong><br />

The ICT tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g centre/Internet café is made up of a m<strong>in</strong>imum of 5 computers<br />

that are all connected to the <strong>in</strong>ternet. Services provided at the ICT tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g<br />

centre/Internet café are paid for at market competitive rates for the area. Other<br />

people <strong>in</strong> several other <strong>district</strong>s have replicated the <strong>in</strong>ternet cafes/ICT tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g<br />

centres and offer similar or better services. A user may therefore need to<br />

compare the services <strong>in</strong> all the cafes <strong>in</strong> the area for a better deal.<br />

The specific locations of the RCDF supported ICT tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g centres and Internet<br />

cafe <strong>in</strong> the <strong>district</strong> are shown <strong>in</strong> the Annex<br />

c) District Web Portal<br />

UCC through the RCDF programme developed the <strong>district</strong> web portal and<br />

handed it over to the <strong>district</strong> local adm<strong>in</strong>istration. The <strong>district</strong> web portal name<br />

is:<br />

www.<strong>wakiso</strong>.go.ug<br />

Common <strong>in</strong>formation provided by the <strong>district</strong> web portals <strong>in</strong>clude; the <strong>district</strong><br />

overview, Health, Agriculture, Education, Government & Politics, Investment &<br />

trade, Tourism, Government Programs, Environment, SMS services,<br />

Infrastructure, News and <strong>district</strong> Contacts,. The web portal also provides a<br />

translation <strong>in</strong> to a common language found <strong>in</strong> the <strong>district</strong>.<br />

The web portal may also be used for generation of <strong>in</strong>come to the <strong>district</strong><br />

through activities such as rent<strong>in</strong>g out space to advertisers.<br />

The <strong>district</strong> Chief Adm<strong>in</strong>istrative Officer (CAO) is the official responsible for all<br />

issues regard<strong>in</strong>g the management, annual fees, updat<strong>in</strong>g and uses of the web<br />

portal<br />

d) Public Pay phones<br />

The Public Pay phones take two ma<strong>in</strong> forms<br />

e) GSM Network Expansion Project<br />

UCC through the RCDF programme provided a subsidy to operators to<br />

establish a network to places that did not have voice network coverage <strong>in</strong> the<br />

<strong>district</strong>. Through a competitive bidd<strong>in</strong>g process, MTN (U) Ltd was awarded the<br />

subsidy and established wireless, voice communications sites <strong>in</strong> the <strong>district</strong> <strong>in</strong><br />

areas shown <strong>in</strong> the Annex<br />

f) School ICT Laboratories<br />
