Bangkok (United Nations Information Services) -- Out of the world’s estimated 170,000 community e-centres – places where people in the poorest and remotest parts of the world can have access to computers and the Internet, around 14,000 are in Asia and the Pacific. The number is expected to jump ten folds in the next five years.
To help poor communities to make the most out of these e-centres, and to learn from each other’s good experience, the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (UNESCAP) is holding a meeting today and tomorrow (27 and 28 September) on establishing a regional knowledge network of e-centres. The meeting takes place at the United Nations Conference Centre in Bangkok. |
