dc.description.abstract | Address by K.Y. Amoako, Executive Secretary of the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) at the Third meeting of the Committee on Development Information (CODI). Mr. Amoako, on his remarks highlighted that, the third meeting under the theme of "Information for Governance". This theme was chosen because the prevailing discourse in Africa is on Governance. He continued, Advances in information technology have led to the evolution of digital and virtual libraries. In a region like ours, where computers and other knowledge technologies are beyond the reach of most people, libraries, especially the virtual networks that ICTs have made possible, are considered important to deliver knowledge and information to the masses. In recognition of the role of virtual libraries in development, we launched the African Virtual Library Network (AVLIN) during the second meeting of CODI. AVLIN is designed to be a hub for the exchange of knowledge and information among African researchers and policy makers. CODI will examine partnerships with the World Bank for the Live Databases and Household Surveys Data Repository in ECA. Finally, he said that CODI would examine partnerships with the World Bank for the Live Databases and Household Surveys Data Repository in ECA. | en |
