Regional Plan of Action for Building the Information Society 2005 (Available in English language only)

The plan of action for building the information society in Western Asia was prepared by the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA), through its Information and Communication Technology Division as the follow-up to the first phase of the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS), held in Geneva from 10 to 12 December 2003. The plan of action for building the information society in Western Asia, or the Regional Plan of Action, takes into consideration the challenges associated with maintaining an integrated and sustainable effort for building the information society in the region and translates these challenges into specific programs and projects. Implementation of these programs and projects would require efficient coordination and effective partnership among concerned organizations but would have the benefit of strengthening inter-Arab cooperation in a framework of partnership that embraces all stakeholders.
