[Example] Partnership to improve ICT in the Pacific

Organization background:

The SPC is an international organisation that provides technical and policy advice and assistance, training and research services to its Pacific Island members. SPC works in a wide range of sectors with the aim of achieving three development outcomes – sustainable economic development, sustainable natural resource management and development, and sustainable human and social development. Our work programme is determined by members, and all of our regional initiatives aim to support members’ national policies and plans.

Partnership background:

Aim: to facilitate the SPC’s implementation of the Framework for Action on ICT for Development in the Pacific. Building the ICT human capacity is one of the key focus areas of the Framework, as lack of ICT human capacity remains one of the key challenges in the Pacific.

Our ideal partner would be a regional development organization within the UN system or with close ties to it.

We look forward to hearing from interested potential partners.
