Call for papers: Conference on ICTs and Development



The International Conference on Information Technology, Communications &
Development
December 1-3, 2002
Kathmandu, Nepal

In the years since the development of the world wide web, an increasing
number of people also in developing countries have been using information
communication technology (ICT) to bring about change in their work methods
and environment and to speed up the development process. The
Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung (FES-N) in Nepal announces the conference for 2002
and calls for papers on the following topics. The main focus across all
these areas would be on youth, gender, e-health, and how technology can
help in building democratic societies. But the list is not exhaustive and
ideas are welcome.

Appropriate Information Technologies
IT, Youth and Volunteerism
Using ICT in Development
Society, Web and Gender
Policy and Legislation
Internet and democratisation

Selected papers will be offered fast-track approval for publication in a
special edition of the Electronic Journal on Information Systems in
Developing Countries (EJISDC). Selected papers from the 2001 conference are
now available in Volume 8 at http://www.ejisdc.org/
