"Digital Opportunity through Technology and Communication" (DOT-COM) is an alliance of three cooperative agreements to promote information and communication technology for development. DOT-COM activities cross all sectors, including education, economic growth, women in development, agriculture, trade, health, environment, and telecommunications/e-commerce policy. The three DOT-COM cooperative agreements provide expertise and services in policy, access, and learning systems. The DOT-COM program provides USAID access to fifteen grantee institutions and over 75 resource partners who work on ICT-for-development issues. Building on the strategies of the African Leland initiative and the worldwide Internet for Economic Development Initiative, DOT-COM provides USAID missions with a broad set of tools to participate in a global effort to bridge the digital divide.
