Today's world can very well be considered to be a wired one, encapsulated by what is known as the World Wide Web. As the digitisation of society unfolds, there is an increasing need to know whether this phenomenon will engender an E-Qual society globally. This conference will address this subject by analysing ICTs, with a particular focus on the Internet, in countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America.
Global E-Quality brought together academics from different disciplines from Africa, Asia and Latin America. The conference was dialogue-driven; its main format was a series of workshops chaired by leading experts in the field. The number of participants was limited in order to facilitate an open and in-depth debate.
Global E-Quality was organised by the International Institute of Infonomics, a new venture of the University of Maastricht and Hogeschool Zuyd, sponsored by the European Commission.
