Information and Communication Technologies can be enabling tools for those who are lagging behind the economic and sociological development. In the reference videos and during the web-lecture we saw how the ICT technologies can be used to help least developed nations to catch up with the rest of the world.
Obviously this technology alone wouldn’t be enough to create miracles. However it is certainly a powerful tool for empowering people. The penetration rates are quite high. ICT technologies are evolving in terms of their usage but also in terms of their status. What is seen as a luxury last century is a daily tool. And thanks to the rapid development of the sector, least developed nations would not be omitted totally. Widely available information can change people which in turn can change the fate of nations.
