Universities and Information and Communication Technologies

In response to demands from its membership for further research and discussion on the impact of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) on the institutional learning and research environment, IAU set up a Working Group on this topic in 1995. The Working Group implemented several actions, among which the preparation of this policy statement bringing together recommendations of the Working Group with those of UNESCO. Drafted during 2003, and tabled as a draft during the World Summit on Information Society (WSIS) in Geneva the same year, it was unanimously approved on the occasion of the 12th IAU General Conference in São Paolo, Brazil in 2004.
