The report on financing trends for development, a collective contribution of the Development Assistance Committee (DAC) Members of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) to the discussions of the UN Task Force on Financial Mechanisms for ICT for Development (TFFM) presents an overview of trends in current donor practices and the development of bilateral donors portfolios for ICT infrastructure. This study seeks to analyse the rationale of the donors and other stakeholders to withdraw from the ICT infrastructure support in the 1990s and shift to integrating ICT components into development assistance projects and programmes.
The report looks at the global trends in aid flows, donor support for ICTs, in particular with regard to recent trends in bilateral ODA commitments for ICT infrastructure and selected donor portfolios and strategies for ICTD.
