This is a group to share ideas on Information and communication technology.

This is also a place to brainstorm how WiserEarth can be used as a ICT-tool and to monitor and contribute ICT-related content on WE.

The ability to access and use information and communication technology is seen as a way of overcoming the 'digital divide'-the gap in access to technology that exacerbates economic, social, and developmental inequalities.
