This issue of “Capacity Building in a Changing ICT Environment” was prepared by the Human Capacity Building Division (HCB) within the Projects and Knowledge Management Department of the Telecommunication Development Bureau of ITU. The work was carried out under the overall direction of Cosmas Zavazava, Chief of Department, with a team comprised of Susan Teltscher, Mike Nxele, Halima
Letamo and Maria Betancourt.
Contributing authors to this issue are:
John Traxler (editor), Mar Camacho, Alastair Clark, Helen Crompton, Dorothy Fahlman, David Hildebrandt, Agnieszka Palalas, Dave Parsons, John Traxler, Ronda Zelezny-Green.
The purpose of this publication is to examine
the current and future ICT environment and
identify the resulting implications for human and
institutional capacity building. Success in the work
of the ITU Telecommunication Development Sector
depends largely on the reservoir of knowledge and
skills that lies within its membership, hence the
need to pursue capacity building interventions that
are current and dynamic.
Capacity building is a cross-cutting issue, and it
is critical for the achievement of all Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs). For this reason,
capacity building is mainstreamed into the
implementation of development programmes
related to the SDGs across all sectors. The rapid
pace of technological changes in the ICT sector
demands a matching pace in the development
of the skills and competencies required to fully
leverage the benefits of these new technologies.
