There is a momentum in Egypt for a
critical assessment of pressing development challenges in
the aftermath of dramatic political shifts in the country.
This change is fueling demand for new, more open and
innovative approaches, offering an opportunity for
policy-makers to develop information and communications
technology (ICT) enabled interventions to address the
country's issues in the urban and transport sectors.
There is also a pressing need to support the efforts of the
public and private sector to develop ICT skills and
professional networks for entrepreneurship and employment,
especially in light of the high youth unemployment and
underemployment in ICT. ICT can even reach those at the
bottom of the pyramid given almost ubiquitous access to
mobile networks and increasing access to mobile broadband
and cheaper smart phones. Such ICT tools offer an
opportunity to collect feedback and data from citizens and
more closely involve them and their views in development and
public decision-making. |
