Experiences from the LDP
ICT should boost local development supporting policies and strategies.
ICT supported local development is too complex to be left only for local authorities.
For small rural communities mobilisation of all partners and resources is essential for development.
Communities need “new type of local leadership”: providing vision, involving all partners in to strategy planning and implementation through multi-sectorial partnerships.
Local Digital Agenda versus Community Digital Agenda
Responsibility of the community with local authorities providing
“new type of leadership”.
Focus on community.
Responsibility of the local authorities.
Focus on the local
authority.
Social consultation of the strategies
developed by local authorities.
Strategy as exclusively
LA/expert issue.
Strategies developed and implemented by community leaders, local institutions,
organisations, informal groups – preferably
organised in different types of partnerships.
Strategy as community
issue.
Local Digital Agenda versus Community Digital Agenda
ICT supporting services provided by local
authorities (e-government).
ICT as “tactical” issue supporting selected
services provided by LA.
ICT supporting local development, all types
of policies and strategies developed in above mentioned way.
ICT as “strategic” issue involving all community
members and resources.
Local Digital Agenda versus Community Digital Agenda
LA supporting ICT skills enabling access to the e-
services.
Focus on “digitally excluded” to help them to
use e-services.
Local partnerships support ICT skills important for local
development (needs assessment, innovations,
communication, cooperation, project development and
implementation).
ICT skills for all community members contributing to
local development.
Example
Problem: Low level of ICT skills among adult community members.
LDA solution: Schools and other institutions
subordinated to local authority equipped with
computers and pushed to offer courses for adults.
CDA solution: LA mobilise all local partners to develop
educational strategy combining all resources and involving all sectors (public,
NGO, business) through partnerships.
Implementation of the Community Digital Agenda – key steps
Encourage local authorities to the new – more strategic - approach to ICT.
Local authority selects one local policy or strategy to pilot the whole approach.
Presentations and workshops by experts for community members on “how ICT may be used by institutions and
organisations to support implementation of the local policies and strategies”.
Implementation of the Community Digital Agenda – key steps
Setting up of the partnerships covering three areas:
1)Infrastructure: common planning of purchase and maintenance, efficiency of the help-desk etc.
2)Digital education: combining all educational resources available locally, provided by local institutions and
organisations to all community members (not only e.g. “senior citizens”).
3)Innovations: group of local “ICT freaks” ready to adapt ICT tools to local conditions, supported by FRSI screening “global
knowledge”.
Implementation of the Community Digital Agenda – key steps
ICT audit of the selected policy or strategy by experts. Report with recommendations on ICT solutions that could be
considered to boost policy or strategy implementation.
Partnerships in cooperation with FRSI experts select ICT solutions taking in to consideration local resources and
conditions.
Development of the “digital agenda” (plan how to boost given policy or strategy using selected ICT solutions) by the
partnerships supported by FRSI experts.
Implementation of the Community Digital Agenda – key steps
“Digital agenda” includes division of responsibilities among local partners and budget.
Implementation of the “digital agenda” by partnerships with support of FRSI (inspirations, experts, grants, networking).
