GLOBAL KNOWLEDGE FOR DEVELOPMENT LIST DISCUSSION AND CONFERENCE
[email protected] : SUBSCRIBE GKD

The Global Knowledge for Development List (GKD) was established to facilitate broad discussion of the role and impacts of knowledge, including information / communications technologies (ICT), for development. With 1,500+ members from about 100 countries, GKD offers a major forum for the exchange of ideas. UNDP, the World Bank, and UNESCO, which support GKD, encourage those from around the world, especially those in the South, to use the List to express their own needs, experiences, and suggestions related to ICT and development.

The Global Knowledge Partnership (GKP) -- an informal partnership that includes the World Bank, UNDP and an array of other public, private and not-for-profit organizations -- has asked GKD to help identify innovative cases of "knowledge for development," which could be presented at the second Global Knowledge Conference (GKII, 7-10 March 2000), in Kuala Lumpur.
