SCAN-ICT project

Scan-ICT project is an initiative which aims to help Africa to gradually develop the capacities necessary to collection and management of information in order to support the investment in the ICT and to ensure the transition of the continent towards the information society.

The reports on the Scan-ICT project show that Africa can create necessary capacities which will enable him to influence the investments in ICT, to reinforce their impact and to encourage the development of solutions, applications and purely African contents. It is a question of creating a Panafrican network of ICT which will include all the questions relating to the ICT. The Network will be coordinated and supported by an institute of research which will be used as observatory.
