Broad topics were discussed and especially how students could benefit in the future from ICT in fields, sectors and topics as diverse as healthcare, our socio-economic activities, education, environment, banking and agricultural endeavours to name but a few.

Recently the news was released that Namibia continues to improve its position on the Global ICT ranking index according to the United Nations report on ICT.
