The world was almost being disintegrated by the COVID 19 pandemic whose peak saw ICT based solutions standing out as one of the best methodologies to counter the numerous challenges that were witnessed. These challenges ranged from job losses, reduced accessibility to health services, shutdown of education service delivery, shutdown down of major transportation modes, closure of religious worshipping places and International boarders, reduction in Justice Dispensations among others. ICT is anchored in UN SDG goals 9 and 11, however, a closer look at the other 15 UN SDG goals, shows that ICT is fully needed for full realization. Even though ICT has continuously been embraced worldwide over the years, some notable gaps still exist especially in developing countries. A brief focus on Africa indicates that 18% of the population have no access to a mobile broadband network, despite a 21% increase in 4G coverage since 2020 according to International Telecommunications Union (ITU). These constraints among many others are major impediments to deployment of ICT services in combating the pandemic and spearhead economic growth in Africa. This paper’s objectives are geared towards showing how ICT can be incorporated in various Engineering projects designs, using applicable simulation tools and relevant desktop research, for the purpose of achieving UN SDG goals with a clear emphasis on the potential economic recovery and growth benefits for Kenya, East Africa and Africa at large.
