Organisational Development |
The development community and developing countries seek to harness Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) as tools of poverty reduction and sustainable development. But poverty is extremely complex and understanding whether ICTs can help alleviate it requires rigorous assessment.
This handbook, commissioned by infoDev and prepared by a team at GAMOS, reviews the experience of infoDev and others in supporting ICT pilot projects in developing countries, and proposes a framework for assessing the effectiveness of these pilot projects. It provides guidance not only on how to design effective M&E components of ICT pilot projects, but also on how to go "beyond" traditional M&E to develop more forward-looking evidence of the potential broader impact of such pilot projects if taken to a larger scale. The handbook is available to download here - Framework for the assessment of ICT pilot projects
