Joining with other organisations is the only feasible way for us to fulfil our mission of supporting ICT-enabled development programmes. Consequently, we work with a wide variety of local partners. Responding to real local demands, our partners devise and implement suitable ICT-enabled development and poverty-reducing measures.

Local partners

Local partners are at the heart of IICD, and are the owners of the IICD supported activities. The lion’s share of our efforts goes towards helping them realise their development goals and objectives. They work at project, programme and policy-making levels. Our local partners have various backgrounds: grassroots, non-profit, government and private. We strengthen the ability of these partners to understand and apply ICT for development. Read more >>

Enabling partners

Behind these local partners, various enabling partners share expertise and contribute financial resources to help ensure that local activities are sustainable. These enabling partners come from the private, public and non-profit sectors, and include our international partners. Partners like DFID, DGIS, SDC, Hivos, PSO or Cordaid finance projects formulated by local partners. Partners like Bellanet, SDC and GKP contribute expertise and/or resources via thematic networks; they also jointly develop and deliver certain knowledge products. Read more >>
