The Committee on the ICT R&D Grants Programme, which is jointly sponsored by IDRC, APDIP and APNIC, and managed by AMIC, has completed the screening and evaluation of 103 proposals from 18 countries in the Asia-Pacific.
The proposals covered a wide array of topics, sectors, and issues, including ICT's for poverty alleviation, ICT policy, ICT and gender, computer processing of local languages, databases, e-readiness, e-learning, e-government, e-governance, e-commerce, rural connectivity, capacity building, networking, and website development. The proposed projects target the rural poor, farmers, women, youth, elementary and secondary school students and teachers, entrepreneurs, SME's, researchers, and policy-makers.
In the meeting which was held in September 2002 in Denpasar, the committee discussed the proposals received thoroughly. It was impressed with the quality and diversity of the proposals in which many people had put significant effort for development, planning and writing of the proposals.
All the proponents will be informed of the results via email by Mid October 2002. The successful proposals awarded for the first round of competition will be posted in the website in November 2002.
We thank you all for your interest in this programme. The next competition round is likely to be in December 2002. Kindly visit this website again for new developments in December 2002.
