Features Canada's IDRC @ The World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) The World Summit on the Information Society provides a platform for dialogue on the central role ICTs play in human development.

Bellanet will be part of the ICT4All Exhibition to take place in Tunis, Tunisia from November 15 to 19, 2005. This multi-stakeholder event, consisting of exhibitions, workshops, presentations and discussions, provides an opportunity to showcase, exchange and discuss the role and use of ICT for development.

Bellanet has partnered with APC, IICD, OneWorld, Panos, HIVOS, DfiD, and SDC to form the Building Communications Opportunities "Souk" at the ICT4All Exhibition. This is a joint presence of like-minded organizations working at the juncture of development and ICTs. In addition, Bellanet will be present at the Canadian Pavilion as part of IDRC’s ICT4D exhibit. We hope to see you at the booth 2201, located in the Development and Solidarity Quarter.

We are also co-organizing and facilitating workshops on the effective use of Open Source in Latin America, the use of Knowledge Sharing for development, and a special session looking back at the "Early Year of ICTs in Development" projects.
