Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the Secretariat of the Global Alliance for Information and

Communication Technologies and Development (GAID) of the United Nations

Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA), and on behalf of the

Inter-American Development Bank (IADB), the International Development

Research Centre - Institute for Connectivity in the Americas (IDRC-ICA),

and the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), we

have the honor to invite you to the Launch Seminar of the GAID Latin

American and Caribbean Regional Network to be held on 4-5 February 2008 at

the Radisson Hotel in San Salvador, El Salvador, in the two days preceding

the II Ministerial Conference on the Information Society eLAC2007 (

 <http://www.elac2007.org.sv/> www.eLAC2007.org.sv) in San Salvador.

The theme of the seminar is to formally launch the work of the Global

Alliance in Latin America and Caribbean and discuss the activities and

development of the regional network. The main objective of the seminar will

be to gather ICT4D experts together to elaborate concrete proposals to

present at the Ministerial Conference, in the areas of ICT and poverty

eradication, health, education, youth employment, and e-government for

improved accountability. In addition, the meeting will arrange exchanges

and dialogues among the regional representatives of GAID, as well as

provide a platform in the region to discuss strategic plans and share

experiences and knowledge on the growth and development of the region in

ICT.

A draft preliminary agenda is attached for your information.
