Partner

Since its inception in 2006, APCICT has collaborated with a wide range of partners in order to strengthen the capacity of the ESCAP member states and associate member states to use information and communication technologies (ICTs) for socio-economic development. For planning and implementing all its ICT capacity building programmes, APCICT has adopted a ‘We DID It in Partnership’ approach, in which ‘DID’ stands for Develop, Implement and Deliver the programmes in partnership. This approach involves establishing strategic collaboration with the partners and stakeholders, and ensuring their sustained involvement at all stages.
