Ict4 d project life cycle v1
This document discusses ICT4D (Information and Communication Technologies for Development) projects, their life cycles, and challenges. It defines ICT4D as using digital technologies to promote economic and social development. ICT4D projects have gone through two phases, with early projects focusing on Internet access and the MDGs, while more recent projects leverage mobile technologies and business models. However, ICT4D projects face challenges such as a lack of focus on local needs, short-term funding approaches, and failure to consider maintenance costs. The document advocates for planning projects using a theory of change and life cycle approach to address these issues in order to maximize positive development impacts.
