Dear Friends,

IT for Change is undertaking a collaborative research study with support
from UNDP New York on 'ICTs for Participatory Local Development', the
outcomes of which will provide a roadmap for a systemic application of
ICTs across development domains and processes, in a manner that
transforms community- and citizen-centric dimensions of local
development.

We are seeking researchers or organisations from the global South to
collaborate on this project. Please see the Call for Research Proposals
(http://www.itforchange.net/images/call_for_proposals.pdf), and download
the full project proposal
(http://www.itforchange.net/images/itfc_proposal_undp_local_development.pdf=
) for further details. Four partners will be selected and will work alongsi=
de IT for Change for the duration of the project, each of whom will underta=
ke two to three in-depth case studies on ICT systems in their local regions=
.

At this stage we urgently seek short descriptions of potential candidate
initiatives from prospective partners. The most relevant among the
initiatives will be selected for in-depth study. Please send a maximum
one page description at the earliest to ITfC@ITforChange.net

Best Regards,
