Bringing together economists, lawyers, statisticians, and technology experts, it assesses gaps in both the availability and use of existing data across the continent, and argues that data creation, management and governance need to improve if private and public sectors are to reap the benefits of big data and digital technologies. It also considers lessons from across the globe to assess principles, norms and practices that can guide the development of data governance in Africa. The book will appeal to scholars and students of data governance, technology and public policy, as well as practitioners and policy makers. 410 0$aInformation Technology and Global Governance 606 $aData protection$xGovernment policy$zAfrica 606 $aData protection$xLaw and legislation$zAfrica 615 0$aData protection$xGovernment policy 615 0$aData protection$xLaw and legislation 676 $a323.4483096 701 $aNdemo$b Bitange$f1959-$01435683 701 $aNdung'u$b Njuguna$01424258 701 $aOdhiambo$b Scholastica$01424259 701 $aShimeles$b Abebe$01424260 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910737295303321 996 $aData governance and policy in Africa$93593498 997 $aUNINA
