"We will have time to reach the Millennium Development Goals – worldwide and in most, or even all, individual countries – but only if we break with business as usual.
We cannot win overnight. Success will require sustained action across the entire decade between now and the deadline. It takes time to train the teachers, nurses and engineers; to build the roads, schools and hospitals; to grow the small and large businesses able to create the jobs and income needed. So we must start now. And we must more than double global development assistance over the next few years. Nothing less will help to achieve
the Goals."

United Nations Secretary-General
Kofi A. Annan

Inspired by our friends at NIIT in India.

To help with the Global Challenge for the UN
Millennium Goals and to try and bring more
focus on the ICTD we have put a little time into
getting website and blog going.

Thanks to all our friends, colleagues and
supporters especially those in India for helping
us get up a new website. Check it out!
