<blockquote>This project examines a different and as yet under-appreciated opportunity for universities to play a central role in studying and teaching about ICT for development (ICT4D) and the broad societal changes that are accompanying the emergence of information societies around the world. The challenges and opportunities inherent in any socio-economic transition of this magnitude require the detached, analytical perspective that universities offer. And yet so few universities anywhere, but especially in the developing world where the need is greatest, effectively link their knowledge of information technology and human development to both understand the dynamics of ICT4D and ensure that these technologies support the developmental priorities of their communities.</blockquote>
