Notes:
Knowledge Share Fair for Agricultural Development and Food Security at FAO Headquarters, Rome, Italy, January 20-22, 2009. 6 pages., Notes from a session at the Knowledge Share Fair about the role and unique value of radio in rural development.
Author examines the challenges and limitation of recent ICT developments, especially when "for millions of people, they remain no more than a dream." Also reminds that the concept of "communications technology" encompasses more than computers and the internet.
Author asks whether new communications technologies can solve global development problems, or are they just a new way to make old mistakes? Examines the assumption that if you move data around instead of physical objects, then you can reduce pollution and energy use significantly. For example, analyses need to include environmental costs of the computers and networks themselves.
