KnowNet Initiative
-
The KnowNet initiative centers around using and propagating ICT models for creating an open system for recognising, valuing, enriching and sharing of local knowledge, in parallel with human capacity building efforts. This will lead to a two-way process of people accessing information and knowledge for development and also information and knowledge finding its way to the probable users. Broadly the concept is three fold: 1. Recognising and valuing existing knowledge which is locally relevant. 2. Leveraging and advancing the mutual knowledge of people. 3. Using Knowledge for catalysing sustainable human development process.

Can we harness the Internet as an ICT tool for the development?
-
This paper set out to discuss whether the Internet, as an ICT tool, could harness economic and social life development in less developed countries (LDCs)?
This paper explores Internet trends and usage in promoting development in LDCs in the framework of existing conditions of these countries. The paper explores how the Internet can be used to develop aid effectiveness, improve social services in education and health, harness knowledge management, promote economic opportunity, empower civil society and make government services transparent. The paper will examine if technology alone suffices for introducing development in LDCs. The paper concludes with what impact Internet applications have on the development sector.
