The ICT Opportunity For A Disability-Inclusive Development Framework September 2013 Preface More than a billion people live with some form of disability, and 80% of them live in developing countries. Disability is both a cause and a consequence of poverty: poor people are more likely to become disabled, and people with disabilities are among the poorest and most vulnerable groups of the global population. Regrettably, disability was not included in the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) or in their operationalizing targets and indicators. As a result, disability has largely been invisible in their implementation, and is rarely included in national policies, programmes, or in monitoring and evaluation efforts related to the MDGs.

  • The Role of Telecentres in Bridging the Digital Divide
    The Role of Telecentres in Bridging the Digital Divide Presentation to Development Symposium for Regulators, ITU, Geneva, 21 November 2000 Guy Girardet Special Development Advisor, CTO [email protected] (C) COMMONWEALTH TELECOMMUNICATIONS ORGANISATION Overview qCTO’s role in DFID’s “bridging the digital divide” programme. qThe need for public-access strategies in developing countries. qImpact of different types of telecentres on poor populations. qPolicy recommendations. (C) COMMONWEALTH TELECOMMUNICATIONS ORGANISATION DFID’s Digital Divide Programme q Funded by British Government through the Department for International Development (DFID). q CTO’s role is “to strengthen local capacity in developing countries, to address the policy and regulatory issues that are key to increasing private investment in, and equitable access to, Information Communication Technologies” . q Policies should have a specific poverty focus, i.e. identify ways that (ICTs) can improve the quality of life for poor people. (C) COMMONWEALTH TELECOMMUNICATIONS ORGANISATION Need for Public Access Strategies q The cost of individual Internet access is too high for the majority of users in developing countries. In Peru, cost of monthly access is US$ 40 a month (20 hours). q Represents 10% of national monthly average salary and does not include the investment in hardware. q Cost of the same number of hours in a Cabina is just 4% of monthly income. q Identifying sustainable public access models strategies is therefore of critical importance for regulators and policy makers. (C) COMMONWEALTH TELECOMMUNICATIONS ORGANISATION Public Access Case Studies qTelecentres made their debut in Sweden in the 1980s and are a relatively recent phenomenon in the development landscape.

  • Telecentres Are an Innovation Which Recently Enters the World of International Cooperation, and Even More Recently Became a Ma
    What do local people think about telecentres? A key issue for sustainability A dissertation presented by Isabella Rega Supervised by Prof. Edo Poglia Submitted to the Faculty of Communication Sciences University of Lugano for the degree of Ph.D. in Communication Sciences February 2010 Abstract This PhD thesis embraces the field of research that focuses on the application of information and communication technologies (ICT) to socioeconomic development in transition or developing countries. The subject of the study are telecentres, public places where people can access information through ICT, and which should fulfill the communication needs of the communities in which they are located, in particular, networked telecentres belonging to a wider regional or national system will be analyzed. The central question of this thesis sprang from the study of the available literature and from nine exploratory field studies carried out in West Africa (in Burkina Faso, Benin, Guinea and Mali). The literature brings to light that, to reach sustainability, it is important to take into consideration not only technological factors thwarting the use of ICT, but also psychological, economic and sociological issues which are reflected in the need to create awareness of the contribution that access to information (through ICT) can have in improving living conditions. However, few guidelines and theoretical models have been used or developed to assess extra-technological issues, shaping a gap in the research field. The nine studies in West Africa highlighted discrepancies in the conceptualization of telecentres in terms of activities and functions between the founding organization and the local staff; and between the the founding organization and the rest of the community.

  • The Community Telecentre Cookbook for Africa
    THE COMMUNITY TELECENTRE COOKBOOK FOR AFRICA RECIPES FOR SELF-SUSTAINABILITY How to Establish a Multi-purpose Community Telecentre in Africa by Mike Jensen and Anriette Esterhuysen United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization The information in this document is placed in the public domain. It is hoped that users will acknowledge the authorship of the document and UNESCO as publisher in disseminating it, in whole or in part. Recommended catalogue entry: [see with Joie] PREFACE People living in developing countries are becoming increasingly aware of the powerful role that new information and communication technologies can play to help them in their struggle for education, democracy, and economic and social development. However, with six billion people on the planet and only about 800 million telephone lines, more than half of the world’s population have not yet made a telephone call, let alone accessed the Internet. If this digital divide is not closed, there could be an even greater gap between the rich and poor of the world. So how can this challenge be met? One solution is public access communication and information services, commonly known as Telecentres. Telecentres are being established through private and public programmes across Africa, through special projects, or by adding PCs to telephone shops, schools, libraries, community centres, police stations and clinics. Costs can be kept low by taking advantage of the fact that communication and computing technologies allow voice, fax and Internet data to travel over the same telecommunication link. Sharing the expense of equipment, skills and access amongst an ever-increasing number of users also helps to cut costs and make these services viable in remote areas.

Mass Communications Information Communication Technologies as Tools of Socio-Economic & Political Development: The National Council of Churches of Kenya (NCCK) Huruma Community Telecentre as a Case Study. (333 pp.) Director of Dissertation: Norma Pecora While Africa is confronted with the urgency to provide its citizens with the basic requirements of life, the rest of the world is heading towards a ‘globally-networked’ information economy. Many communication scholars believe that without access to information resources and telecommunication services, an understanding of its significance, and the ability to use it for social and economic growth, Africa is facing an unavoidable predicament. This dissertation presents a case study of the National Council of Churches of Kenya (NCCK) Huruma Community Telecentre as an arena where governmental, non-governmental and other private organizations are collaborating to test the contribution that a Community Telecentre can make towards providing universal access to telephony and other telecommunications and information services to a disadvantaged community.
