Some Indicators of the Impact of our Work supported by IDRC
Abstract
The paper outlines some programming impacts of IDRC support and assistance, in creation of and implementation of ICT policy. IT for Change (ITfC) advances policy inclusion for the global digital divide. New ICTs make possible decentralized curriculum design and development, and creation of teacher peer networks for professional development. Much work has been done to build networks with educationists, evolving the discourse on ICTs and gender inclusion, and frameworks for ICT’s in citizenship and governance. Global policy circles need to bring attention back to issues of social policy and inclusion, and the perspective of 'ICTs as public good.'
