About iConnect-Online
iConnect-Online is an initiative of the International Institute for Communication and Development (IICD) and serves as a collaboration platform on the practice and implementation of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in sustainable development. iConnect draws content from IICD and its partners, linking resources and expertise.
iConnect-Online includes locally produced articles, highlights, and news from people and organisations working in the field of ICT4D on the themes of agriculture and livelihoods, capacity development, education, environment, gender, governance, health, and innovation.
iConnect-Online is a platform to interact, meet, and share experiences, lessons learned and ideas with others from diverse backgrounds and similar interests, from practitioners to businesses and research organisations with an active interest in ICT4D that want to contribute to and find out more about the impact of ICT4D.
By providing a platform for sharing knowledge and experiences, iConnect-Online aims to contribute to the regional and global discussions on ICT4D for a better understanding of the benefits of ICT4D, while at the same time encouraging collaboration between practitioners.
Together with the iConnect-Online platform, a monthly eBulletin is produced containing articles, highlights, and news from what members share in the site.
