The Information Highway and
Population, Health and Nutrition
Brown-bag seminar series
This seminar series, organized by the APHA International Clearinghouse,
focuses on the applications of computer networking and multi-media
technologies for information sharing and dissemination, among organizations
(particularly NGOs) involved in population, health and nutrition programs.
The series is co- sponsored by USAID's Office of Health and Nutrition, World
Bank PHN Department and Benton Foundation.
This forum brings together computer and communications specialists and
program implementors to raise awareness about the importance of electronic
networking in developing countries and to promote partnerships to find ways
to use the new information and communications technologies to increase access
to information. Speakers will share examples of collaborative initiatives
that are being tested in Asia, Africa, Latin America and North America.
