I'm forwarding this conference announcement for a friend who is on the
organising committee. Interesting conference, interesting people showing up
there. Infonomics seems on a roll, next year they will host the AoIR Internet
Research conference.

Cheers,

Frank.

Dear all,

Herewith I would like to draw your attention to a conference organized by
the International Institute Of Infonomics from March 24 - 27, 2002 in
Maastricht (The Netherlands), titled "Global E-Quality - Rethinking ICTs in
Africa, Asia and Latin America", a conference that will bring together
academics from all over the world. You can find further details on

http://www.infonomics.nl/globalequality/

A brief intro
Today's world can very well be considered to be a wired one, encapsulated by
what is known as the World Wide Web. As the digitisation of society unfolds,
there is an increasing need to know whether this phenomenon will engender an
E-Qual society globally. This conference will address this subject by
analysing ICTs, with a particular focus on the Internet, in countries in
Asia, Africa and Latin America.

Global E-Quality will bring together academics from different disciplines
from Africa, Asia and Latin America. The conference is dialogue-driven; its
main format will be a series of workshops chaired by leading experts in the
field. The number of participants will be limited in order to facilitate an
open and in-depth debate. We suggest that you register as early as possible.


Global E-Quality is being organised by the International Institute of
Infonomics, a new venture of the University of Maastricht and Hogeschool
Zuyd, sponsored by the European Commission.

In case you require further information after visiting the website, please
do not hesitate to contact me.

With kind regards,

Jeroen de Kloet
