    Acacia 2006-2010 final report
    (Acacia Program Initiative, IDRC, Ottawa, ON, CA, 2010) IDRC. Acacia Program Initiative
    The report was written ahead of the Acacia program’s closure, meaning, of the 157 research activities approved to date for this Prospectus period, 52% of Acacia’s projects were currently in progress. The program focuses on improving economic development and opportunities (how ICTs broadly influence social and economic development in Africa); enhancing social service delivery (how ICTs help African governments be more effective in the delivery of citizens’ services); and empowering citizens (how the use of ICTs can reinforce citizens’ capabilities). The report includes financial information, project outputs and outcomes, analysis, and lessons learned. Bibliographic references are included.

    External review of the IDRC Acacia Program : final report
    (2010) Pare, Daniel; Ofir, Zenda; Miller, Jonathan; Taylor, Emily
    Acacia’s Phase III intended to achieve four objectives: Sustained Policy Dialogue, Thriving Research Networks, Enhanced Research Capacity in ICT4D, and more Social and Technical Innovation in ICTs. This review comprises an external verification of the Acacia team’s self-evaluation of their work over the past five years as reported in the Final Prospectus Report (FPR). Overall, the review panel finds that Acacia III has ensured that program implementation was in line with what was envisaged; priorities were established, and changes were made in a thoughtful manner. This in-depth review encompasses activities, outputs and outcomes of the project.
