Call for Proposals
ACP-Information and Communication Technologies [@CP-ICT] Programme

A call for proposals of 9,5 million euros has been opened under the 'ACP-Information and Communication Technologies [@CP-ICT] Programme'.

The European Commission recently took the decision to finance the @CP-ICT Programme with a 20 million euros allocation from the European Development Fund (EDF). The Call for proposals is a major component of the programme that will be managed by the Secretariat of the African, Caribbean and Pacific group of states (ACP).

The overall objective of this call is to help ACP governments and institutions to design, implement, monitor and evaluate their ICT national, regional and continental policies towards sustainable development, by providing high-quality, globally-benchmarked but locally-relevant policy advice, training and related capacity. Non-profit institutions from member states countries of the European Union and from the African, Caribbean and Pacific Group of states (ACP group), as well as international organisations are eligible to apply.

Deadline for submission of proposals is 16 September 2008.
