Subject: FW: World Bank Group is consulting on new ICT Sector Strategy 2011


Colleagues

 

The World Bank are consulting on a new ICT Strategy -  see http://web.worldbank.org/WBSITE/EXTERNAL/TOPICS/EXTINFORMATIONANDCOMMUNICATIONANDTECHNOLOGIES/EXTICTSTRATEGY/0,,menuPK:7036935~pagePK:149018~piPK:149093~theSitePK:7036928,00.html

 

One strand of the new Strategy is going to be around Transformation so is very appropriate to us.

 

I attended one of their online consultations on Tuesday and have just answered the online questionnaire of behalf of the TC.   Bottom line is I’ve requested that they use our TGF and can we talk to them about how they can utilize it as part of the new strategy.  I’ll keep you informed of any response.

Do you think we can get the OASIS standard into this? I can't attend any of the virtual consultations on this but am hoping you can.
