ICT for Peace Report - job done.

For the last year, I’ve been working with the Swiss Executive Secretariat on their contribution to a little thing called the World Summit on the Information Society. The fruits of that labour are in the Report on Information and Communications Technology for Peace [PDF] (ICT4Peace), which you can find on the ICT4Peace website. The subtitle of the report is “The Role of ICT in Preventing, Responding to and Recovering from Conflict”, which is a big clue as to what the report covers. It offers an overview of some of the major initiatives and organisations that have been using technology on the international stage to work on humanitarian and peace interventions. The Report will be officially launched at WSIS in Tunisia, with all the bells and whistles - see you there!
