This short country report, a result of
larger Information for Development Program (infoDev) -
supported survey of the Information and Communication
Technologies (ICT) in education in Africa, provides a
general overview of current activities and issues related to
ICT use in education in the country. Sudan's experience
of the last two decades in building and capitalizing on ICT
as a gateway for sustainable development is a landmark in
the country's history. The institutional, legal, and
regulatory frameworks were reformed to advance ICT as tools
for integrating the economy into the global market. The
Sudanese government has budgeted future revenues for
infrastructure refurbishments, and a multi-donor trust fund
(MDTF) - administered by the World Bank was created to
support development projects. Investments from the MDTF will
be divided between the Government of Southern Sudan (GOSS)
and the national government in Khartoum. In November 2005,
the MDTF gave the first disbursement of $20 million to the
GOSS for the rebuilding of health and education services.
However, the full potential of ICT is greatly hampered by
the lack of capacity of communities to make the best use of
the services. Therefore, United Nations Development Program
(UNDP) is intervening to assist the government through its
ICT institutions to promote ICT for human development. |
