ICT, development impact and MDGs
Measuring Information SocietyWSIS, Tunis - 15 November 2005
Mainstreaming vs measurement ?
• The problems– Sector data are still lacking– If available, they will only give part of the
picture (digital divide/applications)– The push towards ‘mainstreaming’ will make
measurement more difficult
Measuring Information SocietyWSIS, Tunis - 15 November 2005
Mainstreaming vs measurement ?
• Possible steps to be taken– Strengthen local statistical capacity (data
collection)– Foster agencies’ abilities (andf interest) to
collect application-related data– Encourage development sectors (e.g. health,
education) to identify common IT indicators linked to performance and development impact.
