The Stockholm Challenge Award 2006 invites excellent ICT projects in six categories (public administration, culture, health, education, economic development, and environment) from all over the world to compete for the prestigious challenge trophies.
The objective of the challenge is to help local entrepreneurs, who work to close the digital divide, by bringing in research communities, development organisations and strong corporate initiatives.
The awards will be handed out in City Hall, Stockholm - in May 2006. Special focus will be on projects in countries and regions with the greatest needs. There will also be an international challenge conference in Stockholm on issues related to the role of ICTs in global development work.
