A Pasha Centre is a Digital villages Project (DVP) whose key functions are to provide a suite of services to the public via computers connected to the internet. The Pasha Centres are run by private entrepreneurs who have gone through the training program initiated by Kenya ICT Board. Prospective entrepreneurs who have undergone training are eligible to apply for a Pasha development loan from a revolving fund set up by the Kenya ICT Board. Pasha is a Swahili word meaning "to inform". The Pasha Project's key role is to provide Kenyans in rural areas with access to information across the country. ==Introduction== Most of the ICT facilities in Kenya have been in urban areas, this has resulted in glaring disparities between urban and rural areas in the distribution of ICT facilities. To redress the disparities, the Kenya ICT Board has embarked on a Digital Villages project (DVP) under the Kenya Transparency Communications Infrastructure Project, which will see a creation of networks of information facilities across the country. Digital villages are centres that provide a suite of services to the public via computers connected to the internet, digital cameras, printers, fax machines and other communication infrastructure. The digital village project (DVP) is an integral part of an innovative public-private partnership (PPP) for taking ICTs to the rural communities in Kenya. DVP seeks to harness the vast untapped potential of the rural sector by making ICTs more accessible and affordable to the wider population through the development and utilisation of ICT facilities in the rural areas. The services to be provided by the Digital Villages will include government services; community-based services as well as a host of commercial services. Pasha is designed and facilitated by the Kenya ICT board in conjunction with key non-commercial partners.
