| description | This report reviews key ICTs for Development (ICT4D) Programs, Innovations and
Information Exchange Platforms which are experimented within South Asia to
explore the use and scale-ability of these innovative approaches to other parts of
Africa and the developing world. Learning from the pioneering experiences of pilot
projects across India and Africa in ICT development, we assess the potential ICTs
offer to not only communicate climate information and related advisory services but
also to build capacity and increase the resilience of rural smallholders. It is our hope
that such South-South learning can pave the way for improved cross-regional
experience sharing to tackle common challenges in reaching ‘the last mile’ with
salient rural extension services, including climate information services. |
