STAY UPDATED
ICT Update is a bi-monthly printed bulletin, web magazine and accompanying email newsletter focusing on the use of information and communication technologies in agriculture in developing countries.

The theme of the latest edition of ICT Update Magazine is 'Coping with climate change'.

Developing countries will suffer worst from the impacts of global warming. Soil erosion and desertification will affect these countries far more than Europe and North America. Some small island states in the South Pacific and the Indian Ocean could be entirely engulfed by the seas.

Such dire threats seem overwhelming and tackling them impossible. The scale of the big-picture hazards often obscure practical strategies of mitigating and adapting that local communities, nongovernmental organisations and researchers in developing countries are engaged in. This issue of ICT Update looks at a few such pioneering activities in developing countries.

ICT Update is published in English and French, by the Technical Centre for Agricultural and Rural Cooperation in Wageningen, the Netherlands.
