Everyone should have the necessary skills to benefit fully from the Information Society. Therefore capacity building and ICT literacy are essential. ICT can contribute to achieving universal education worldwide, through delivery of education and training of teachers, and offering improved conditions for lifelong learning, encompassing people that are outside the formal education process, and improving professional skills.
IICD is an independent non-profit foundation, established by the Netherlands Minister for Development Cooperation. It organizes different types of training activities aimed at increasing the level of ITC skills in society in order to promote sustainable development.
