   Extractions: GIIC Sponsors Summary The Global Information Infrastructure Commission, the InterAmerican Development Bank and the University of the Andes conference entitled "Education in the Information Age: An Agenda for Action in Latin America and the Caribbean" held in Cartagena Colombia (July 9-11) turned out to be an unprecedented success. The meeting was considered to be an unique achievement because it was the first time the regional Ministries of Education met with education innovators, educationists (university professors studying education and teachers) and the private sector. Each group had the opportunity to discuss the challenges and successes in education in the region. Through much heated and productive discussions, the conference participants came to agreement that education was one of the most pressing matters facing Latin America and the time to act is now. Despite each side believing different solutions to this common problem, the participants had the opportunity to understand everyone's perspective. Outcome As a result of these exchanges, new initiatives arose on the final day of the conference which involved participants from each group. These new initiatives will:

These reports will form the basis of APC's Latin American interventions in the World Summit on the Information Society process. "Over the last ten years, there has been a never-ending discussion regarding which sector of the Argentine state is primarily responsible for public policy related to ICTs and the Information Society. At the present time, five different government departments work in the area. Besides, and not necessarily in these departments, 46 programmes related to the Information Society have been detected […]. The lack of policy (or the policy of not having a policy) has meant, despite all the departments and programmes, significant duplications and gaps." - excerpt from report by Irene Saccone and Rodolfo R.

Introduction Peoples from ancient Asia crossed the Bering land bridge connecting Asia and Alaska sometime between 30,000 and 10,000 years ago, at the end of the last major Ice Age. They were the first members of the species Homo Sapiens Sapiens to settle in the New World. Over the course of millennia, their descendants occupied just about every geographical and ecological niche in the Americas, from the Inuit of Alaska to the Ona of Tierra del Fuego.

    Extractions: 20 November 2002 Global E-Commerce Thriving; Regional Disparities Persist, U.N. Reports, November 18, 2002 (Asia-Pacific shows greatest potential, UNCTAD says) The report is available in full at Electronic commerce is growing and thriving in many parts of the world, according to a U.N. report issued November 18. In the developing world, however, business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce must gain strength if nations are to take best advantage of the economic expansion opportunities offered by the new technologies. The report, issued by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, found that Internet users are expected to number 655 million worldwide by the end of 2002. That's a 30 percent increase over the previous year, with the developing world accounting for a full third of all new users. An UNCTAD press release on the report says B2B is expanding at a lesser pace in the developing world, however, largely because of inadequate information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure. Asia and the Pacific lead the developing world in the deployment of broadband, government support for the new technologies and workforce computer skills. Fifty million new Internet users are going online in the region each year.
