Measurement of International Development: See list of broad indicators listed in Wikipedia and read The Guardian, How would you measure development progress?
•http://www.ted.com/talks/hans_rosling_reveals_new_insights_on_poverty.html
•Some typical index/indicators:
•Well Being ? Happiness?
Measurement of International Development
GDP, GINI, Mortality Rate, Population, Education, Security, etc, etc, etc, etc…
Mortality vs Population?

Measurement of International Development
In Practice, mainly:
• Human Development Index (HDI)http://hdr.undp.org/en/statistics/hdi
• World Bank’s World Development Indicators (WDI)http://data.worldbank.org/indicator/all

ICT in Agriculture •Skew of disciplinary research (econ, ethnographic, ENR, energy, geog…etc)
•Jensen work: - neat econ study: • People:=only 2• Tech: = 1 function• Welfare= income
•Burrell et al. – making a mess: • Other players:/relationships
auctioneer, fish waste vendor, gender etc
• Tech: lots of other usage • Context: n/s, types of terrain, boards• Welfare= WAY more than income
•Can it be generalized then? •What to do in practice? • Be cognizant of debates• Local context• Don’t start with tech • Same old foundational factors in
design and implementation• Usually dynamic, changing, needs,
messy, ‘it’s complicated’
