| description |
This policy note is the first of two
volumes, drafted in conjunction with a more detailed
technical report. It was prepared in response to a request
by the Government of Tunisia for Bank assistance to
formulate an ICT development strategy, in accordance with
the targets set in the Government of Tunisia's 10th
development plan. The policy note highlights current
constraints to ICT sector development and proposes measures
to eliminate them. It should be read in conjunction with the
broader strategy report (volume two: technical report),
which contains complementary data and technical information.
The Government objectives were conveyed to the World Bank
team in May 2001. The strategy is aimed at bolstering the
country's emerging ICT sector and maximizing its
ability to compete in local, regional, and global markets.
In this context, the major objectives of the ICT strategy
are to: (a) maximize the ICT contribution to growth and
employment generation; (b) position Tunisia in the global
ICT market; and (c) integrate ICT into the Tunisian economy.
Indirect issues of the ICT impact on productivity and
competitiveness are marginally treated in this note. The
report compares the state of ICT development in Tunisia that
of other economies, taking into account Tunisia's
relative strengths and weaknesses in developing a
competitive and robust ICT industry. The report outlines the
pillars of a strategy and specifies measures to be
implemented by the Government, the private sector, and other stakeholders. |
