Activity description:
In preparation for the 2009 edition of the WSIS national profiles, ESCWA held, during November 2008, a “Consultative Workshop on the National Profiles of the Information Society in Western Asia”. The workshop was attended by representatives of ministries of communication and information technology as well as boards, councils and centres in charge of developing the information society and building the ICT sector in the region. The workshop’s main discussions revolved around a new template for the publication which was proposed by ESCWA to improve the quality and the accuracy of the information and to minimize problems encountered in previous editions.
