Seán Ó Siochrú, on Global Information Society Watch, n.d.
This section offers a succinct assessment of how five international institutions have performed in relation to information and communication technology (ICT) policy, including the outcomes of the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS). A theme of special interest is participation in policy-making, particularly the participation of civil society, of women, and of actors from the South.
Our authors examine the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO), and the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO). The World Trade Organisation (WTO), an important institution with extensive and complex relationships to ICTs spread over a number of its agreements, is notable for its absence here and will be included in the next edition of this publication.
