Mozambican delegates learn how TCRA regulates communication sector
DAR ES SALAAM: A DELEGATION from Mozambique’s National Communications Institute (INCM) toured Tanzania Communications Regulatory Authority (TCRA) headquarters in Dar es Salaam, to gain understanding of the details of communication sector regulation.
The recently three-day study visit allowed the delegation to gain valuable insights into various aspects of communication regulation.
The Mozambican delegation, comprising prominent figures in the INCM, arrived in Tanzania to explore a range of topics, from licensing to the management of telecommunications and internet services and the efficient allocation of resources within a communication regulatory framework.
Upon their arrival at TCRA’s headquarters in Dar es Salaam, the delegation was warmly received by Mr Modestus Ndunguru, the Director of Legal Services, who welcomed them on behalf of TCRA Director General Dr Jabiri Bakari.
The visit marked a significant step toward strengthening collaboration and knowledge sharing between the two regulatory bodies.
The visiting team was also introduced to TCRA’s robust cyber security framework, which plays a pivotal role in safeguarding communication infrastructure. The TCRA managed Tanzania Computer Emergency Response Team (TZ-CERT) demonstrated how it actively manages and regulates cybersecurity matters, ensuring security of communication networks and data in the country.
Helena Fernandes, Executive Board Member of INCM and leader of the delegation, expressed her gratitude at the conclusion of the study tour.
She commended TCRA for its warm welcome and the comprehensive insights shared during the visit.
“We are deeply thankful to TCRA for their cordial welcome and for facilitating this valuable study tour. The knowledge and experiences gained here will undoubtedly benefit our efforts in Mozambique’s communication sector regulation,” said Fernandes.
The exchange of knowledge and expertise between Mozambique’s INCM and Tanzania’s TCRA not only signifies a strengthening of regional ties but also underscores the commitment of both organisations to enhance the regulation and management of their respective communication sectors.
