Who is duplicating Who?

ANOTHER UN-DESA SCANDAL

DESA's DPADM un-authorized work on eGovernment and Information Technology raises eyebrows and questions with many UN member states - whom have invested so far 170 Million a year to develop UNESCO's eGovernance Programme as well as in development of UNESCO's eGovernance Databases.

UNESCO has now brought the issue to ECOSOC and General Assembly.

DPADM illegal, unauthorized and non-mandated work in eGovernance and Information Technology, but more importantly in "so-called DATABASES", is a total duplication of the already existing first class Databases from UNESCO in the same exact areas.

We call upon USG Sha Zukang and SG Ban Ki Moon to stop throwing down the drain the tax-payers contribution and re-organize UN-DESA based on a detailed assessment of current structure and services and identify the niche for our organization.

This Chinese way of doing business is taking DESA no where but bringing more shame reminding us of the Italians.

E-Governance

E-Governance is the public sector’s use of information and communication technologies with the aim of improving information and service delivery, encouraging citizen participation in the decision-making process and making government more accountable, transparent and effective.
The principal on-going UNESCO activity in the field of e-governance is a cross-cutting project on E-Governance Capacity-Building. This project aims at promoting the use of ICT tools in municipalities to enhance good governance through the development of training modules for local decision-makers in Africa and Latin America.

Past UNESCO activities on e-governance are described in the Documents/Publications under "Resources" section. The "Global survey on on-line governance" and the "Country profiles of e-governance" were undertaken in cooperation with the Commonwealth Network of Information Technology for Development Foundation (COMNET-IT).

Further information on the e-governance survey and the country profiles can be found in the form of a database in the COMNET-IT website.
