| More than two decades of war and unrest has
resulted in demolition of basic infrastructure of Afghanistan
i.e. education, health, housing, economy, and social life. Afghanistan
was not only cut off from the rapid developments in the world,
but also lost the basic facilities it had and the country was
deserted from educated Afghans who were to build up the country.
Afghanistan has now entered in to the new era and both the Afghan
nation and international community has a huge task ahead of
them to rebuild the country economically, socially, politically
and educationally. The Afghan Compute Science Association
(ACSA) has decided to organize a one-day conference to address
the immediate need and promotion of ICT in the country.
The conference is designed to bring together about 500 Information
and Communication Technology (ICT) professional and other
related key player in Afghanistan to share ideas for promotion
and implementation of ICT in Afghanistan. The Conference will
mainly focus on E-readyness status of ICT in Afghanistan,
commencement of building blocks for ICT strategy in Afghanistan,
ICT awareness campaign in Afghanistan and propose an ICT coordination
body for the country.
Afghan Computer Science Association (ACSA) solely manages
and organizes the AFIT conference.
The direct beneficiary of the conference is the participant
and the indirect beneficiaries are the ICT community actively
working in Afghanistan and in turn all national and international
individuals and organization in the country.
