Abstract: This write up presents works that are done in the field of ICT for the development of Africans. Based on the vast array of development challenges faced by the African continent, the paper presents research areas that have attracted African researchers but also defines open development issues that need to be addressed for the transformation of African societies. These open issues include law enforcement, development of IT infrastructures, the training of African youth in the use of ICT tools to tackle development problems, the adoption of ICT in African daily life and the development of ICT tools based on the African context. If these challenges are seriously taken into consideration by African researchers and policy makers, the development of the continent will be a matter of time associated to the achievement of the goals of launched activities. For this to become true there is a strong requirement that Africans defeat corruption. This editorial piece presents corruption as one of the most important impediment to the successful implementation of IT projects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
