Abstract

In Universities and other institutions, Information
Communication and Technology (ICT) is critical for today’s
learning, research, business profiling and institutional
management. However, sustainability of systems in place
depends greatly on the disaster preparedness and Recovery
Plans. Although most African universities have these plans, the
implementation procedures are often not followed properly. The
objective of this study is to evaluate the implementation
procedures of disaster recovery plans in two RUFORUM
universities, identify their strengths, weaknesses, and develop
a generic framework for scaling up Disaster Recovery Plans
and implementation procedures in these and other RUFORUM
universities. The pilot study targets Egerton University in Kenya
and Makerere University (Uganda) especially ICT Departments
and Academic Registrars units.
