IT for Sustainable Human Development
The IT for Sustainable Human Development Project aims to catalyze implementation of a number of pilots in deprived local communities in both rural and semi-urban areas.
Activities include:
- set up ICT Centres
- link local primary schools with application service providers at the central education level (called "school net")
- experiment with local application service provision based on local needs
- operationalize an "Internet bus" service in the localities; develop local community ICT-use capabilities
- link local community ICT systems to labour market statistics collection, market information and job creation
- establish linkages to national-level ICT systems and central-level planners
- incorporate new sustainable human development modalities into national policy for improved budgetary allocations and targeting
- new national ICT plan to explicitly include ICT for sustainable human development
