ICT PLATFORM
What is It
Read the following definition of terms to familiarize them.
The word ‘advocacy’ has different meanings for different people in different world views.
People understand ‘advocacy’ in accordance with their experiences, their worldview, their language
and their culture. Some people will see advocacy as beneficial, but other people may have had bad
experiences and see advocacy as something to avoid. Assuming that another person understands
‘advocacy’ in the same way as we do can sometimes lead to miscommunication, so it is important
to clarify a common understanding. There is no single correct interpretation of the
word ‘advocacy’. Tearfund defines ‘advocacy’ as: ‘Influencing the decisions, policies, and practices
of powerful decision-makers, to address underlying causes of poverty, bring justice, and support
good development.’ In some contexts it is risky
to talk about ‘advocacy’ and in some languages there is no equivalent word. In these situations, it
may be appropriate to find an alternative phrase, which has the same meaning in that particular
context.
Advocacy is a process of supporting and enabling people to: Express their views and concerns. Access
information and services. Defend and promote their rights and responsibilities.
ICT denotes about all technology innovations that was centered to maximize the potential use of
telecommunication systems with all its various forms. Designates the union of numerous technological
advantages through a cabling system that transmits diverse data and communication types, formats,
and platforms.
ICT, Human Development and country defined as the new social morphology of our society. Enables
the exchange, the redirection, and the reception of information, on a global scale without restrains of
space or time.
Intentionally, the spread and appropriation of ICTs has been a key dimension of globalization, urging
societies to build communication systems, manage them well; develop infrastructure and capacity to
use it, and implement good policy and regulation.
Enhances learning and fills a large gap by encouraging distant learning.
Information Age suggests we are moving beyond the Industrial Age into an era where the sharing of
knowledge and ideas is the new driver of power and world economy.
ICT, Empowerment and participation enhance the empowerment of civil society by increasing their
capacity to work as organized networks both within and beyond borders.
ICTs can help improve empowerment and participation in policy debates by increasing linkages to
government processes to maintain government transparency in turn developing of the citizen and
promoting the use of ICT.
Describe how ICT tools and platforms have changed the way people communicate, and how social
change has been brought about by the use of ICTs.
