IICD is a non-profit foundation that specialises in information and
communication technology (ICT) as a tool for development. IICD is
active in Africa and Latin America where we bring about technical and
social innovations that create and enhance development opportunities in
education, governance, livelihoods, health and the environment. For
maximum impact we work closely with partners from the public, private
and non-profit sectors. Our aim is to help our local partners –
teachers, farmers, health workers, local government officials and civil
servants - to formulate and implement their own ICT-supported
development policies and programmes.

International Advisory Board and Board of Trustees
IICD is a young organisation with staff coming to us from public,
private and non-profit sectors. Our understanding grows as we are
continually challenged to learn and to date we have always met these
challenges. Our International Advisory Board (IAB)
helps us in this effort.
The IAB plays a strong role in IICD’s strategic lessons and best
practices, giving regular advice on proposed directions and reviewing
existing approaches. IAB members also play an ambassadorial role for
IICD in their countries and communities. A number of recognised Dutch
development stakeholders serve on our IAB alongside a host of African
policy-makers and ICT for Development practitioners.
The IAB has a formal advisory role to both the Managing
Director and the Board of Trustees. This Board is
constitutionally independent from any financiers and has the role of
formally approving strategic and organisational decisions at IICD.
Members stem from the private, public and non-profit sectors in the
Netherlands.
