<p class="MsoNormal">The United Nations Asian and Pacific Training Centre for Information
and Communication Technology for Development (UN-APCICT) is compiling a series
of case studies on different aspects of information and communications
technology for development (ICT4D) from across the Asia-Pacific region.</p> 

<p class="MsoNormal"> &nbsp;</p> 

<p class="MsoNormal">The UN-APCICT Case Studies Series on ICT4D aims to share the
vast body of knowledge, practical experiences and insights gained from ICT4D
projects in the Asia-Pacific region. By making the project experiences and
findings more accessible, the series will be a useful reference to policy
makers who are planning or supporting ICT4D projects. New ICT4D projects can
benefit from the case studies, avoiding common pitfalls and using strategies
that have been demonstrated as successful. The case studies can also generate
opportunities for networking, collaboration and implementation of new
solutions.</p> 

<p class="MsoNormal"> &nbsp;</p> 

<p class="MsoNormal">Each year, two issues of the UN-APCICT Case Study Series on
ICT4D will be published (in print and online). Each issue will focus on one or
more ICT4D theme(s). For the inaugural issue, the themes include:</p> 

<p class="MsoNormal"> &nbsp;</p> 

<p class="MsoListParagraph"><span style="font-family: Symbol;"><span>·<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

<p class="MsoListParagraph"><span style="font-family: Symbol;"><span>·<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
</span></span></span>e-Governance</p> 

<p class="MsoListParagraph"><span style="font-family: Symbol;"><span>·<span style="">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
</span></span></span>Gender</p> 

<p class="MsoNormal"> &nbsp;</p> 

<p class="MsoNormal">We are pleased to invite project managers, development
practitioners, policy makers and researchers to submit case studies on these
themes. Case studies can be submitted online, or the submission form can be
downloaded, completed offline and emailed to me at <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="mailto:christine@unapcict.org">christine@unapcict. org</a>. <b>The
deadline for submission of case studies is 31 August 2008.</b></p> 

<p class="MsoNormal"> &nbsp;</p> 

<p class="MsoNormal">All completed case studies will be featured on UN-APCICT¢s
online portal - the e-Collaborative Hub (or e-Co Hub at <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.unapcict.org/ecohub">http://www.unapcict .org/ecohub</a>).
Select case studies will be published in UN-APCICT¢s bi-annual publication as
part of the UN-APCICT Case Studies Series on ICT4D. Each issue will be
available in print for worldwide circulation and online on UN-APCICT¢s e-Co Hub
