GAID Work Plan Summary
The following two proposals have been submitted to the Strategy council and Steering Committee for adoption as new CoEs?:
- The Indigenous Peoples’ Appropriating the Knowledge Society (IPAKS) Through Satellite- Enabled Broadband Networking will provide a means for the sharing of experience and good practice in the application of ICTs in support of development by indigenous peoples.
- Wireless for Development (W4D) will provide a policy forum and increase awareness on the potential use of wireless-related technologies to reduce poverty, accelerate development, and improve ICT decisions made by public administrations and civil society networks.
Upon adoption by the Steering Committee, UNDESA-GAID will support these CoEs? and help them develop their programme of activities in line with UNDESA-GAID's objectives and areas of focus.
