[AISWorld] Repository on ICTs, Climate Change and Development: Contents

[Course User IDPM]

The online repository on "ICTs, Climate Change and Development" (www.niccd.org<http://www.niccd.org>) is now completed, with the following contents:



- Two background papers that review the literature in this field, and propose a new framework for understanding ICTs, adaptation and "e-resilience".



- Seven thematic papers that summarise current evidence on ICTs, climate change and the topics of mitigation, adaptation, disaster management, strategy, governance, gender, and emergent technologies.



- Nineteen project case studies for use in practitioner/strategy guidance, training, or research.



- Four strategy briefs that summarise action priorities and also outline future research priorities in this field.



- A training guide for those who wish to run their own training workshop on ICTs, climate change and development.



These materials are the product of the University of Manchester's "Climate Change, Innovation and ICTs" research project, funded by Canada's International Development Research Centre (www.idrc.ca<http://www.idrc.ca>) and managed by the University's Centre for Development Informatics (www.cdi.manchester.ac.uk<http://www.cdi.manchester.ac.uk>).



If colleagues have links to related materials, we would be grateful to hear of those.
