Title

Albania: National Strategy for Information and Telecommunication Technologies

Description

Excerpted from the website:

The goal of the Information and Communications Technologies for Development (ICTD) project is to facilitate efforts by the Government of Albania, in cooperation with other national and international stakeholders, to develop a National ICT Strategy that addresses such issues as bridging the digital divide, defining mechanisms for creating legal and fiscal frameworks for implementation of e-government, e-education and e-commerce initiatives, and the continued development of telecommunications infrastructure. This strategy will be developed within the context of the overall National Strategy for Social and Economic Development, the European Stabilization and Association Agreement, and sub-regional activities under the EU Stability Pact. The strategy will build on the many individual and sectoral e-initiatives already being implemented by other development organizations, such as e-governance activities led by the Italian Government, EU, WB, DFID and USAID, e-vocational and e-education and information activities led by the Open Society Institute and GTZ, as well as many other cross-cutting ICT activities supported by these and other donors. It will provide a mapping of current ICT activities, identify linkages and complementary development approaches, as well as identify new areas of intervention. As such, the Strategy will outline national priorities and coordination mechanisms for their implementation. It is expected to play a key role in supporting the establishment of strategic national and international public-private partnerships, integrating Albania into regional ICT frameworks, building capacity at local and national levels, improving public access to new technologies, raising awareness of the potential of ICTs for development at political levels, and mobilizing additional resources. 2.
