Dear Sir/Madam,

The editorial team of the International Federation for Information 
Processing (IFIP) Working Group 9.4 newsletter titled 'Information 
Technology in Developing Countries', which is published by the Indian 
Institute of Management, Ahmedabad, India would like to invite you to 
contribute articles/case studies for publication in the June 2013 issue 
of the newsletter. The newsletter carries articles on topics such as 
current developments taking place in the field of ICT and e-Governance 
in the context of developing countries, ICT applications that have been 
able to create a socio-economic impact, paradigms to understand the 
impact of IT on development and its social implications, etc. Our 
readers primarily include academicians, development practitioners, 
administrators concerned with IT policy, and IT professionals. The 
current issue of the newsletter can be accessed at: 
http://www.iimahd.ernet.in/egov/ifip/feb2013/feb2013.htm. Adownloadable 
PDF version of this issue is also available on our website 
at:http://www.iimahd.ernet.in/egov/ifip/feb2013/feb2013.pdf.

We request you to send in articles and case studies, written or compiled 
by you, that may be relevant to the newsletter's theme. Your 
contribution could relate to any developing country in the world wherein 
e- governance/ICT applications have created a significant impact on the 
lives of citizens. It could even be a conceptual note on issues such as: 
reasons for the failure of a particular project and guidelines for 
implementation, projects being undertaken for the achievement of the 
Millennium Development Goals and their progress so far, new and 
innovative developments taking place in the areas of e-learning, 
e-health, telecenters, community radio, mobile enabled services etc.

The article contributed by you may be modified by the editorial team as 
per the format and requirements of the newsletter. However this shall be 
done only with prior approval from you. Please note that the 
article/case study contributed should be an original one and should not 
have been published in an identical form elsewhere (online). The 
contribution should reach us by the second week of June 2013, as this 
will provide us with sufficient time to review and/or modify it (if 
needed). However, the deadline for submission can be extended based on 
your convenience.

Throughout the 18 years of its publication, the newsletter has received 
an overwhelming response from its readers as well as contributors who 
have made this achievement possible with their highly interesting and 
thought-provoking articles. We hope to receive the same kind of 
enthusiasm and participation in our endeavour in the coming years. We 
look forward to your support in making the newsletter a far more 
valuable product for our readers.

Thank you so much and best regards,

Editorial Team.
