Dear Michel

As you may already know, the Routledge textbook, “Information and 
Communication Technology for Development (ICT4D) 
<https://www.routledge.com/Information-and-Communication-Technology-for-Development-ICT4D/Heeks/p/book/9781138101814>” 
has just been published and is available in physical or e-book versions.

There are three main elements to the book:

·Foundations of ICT4D: ICTs and development, infrastructures, design and 
implementation best practice.

·ICT and development goals: economic growth, poverty eradication, social 
development (health and education), good governance, environmental 
sustainability.

·Emerging development models: development 2.0, data-intensive 
development, open development.

The book uses extensive in-text diagrams, tables and boxed examples with 
chapter-end discussion and assignment questions and further reading.

Online resources (slide packs, session outlines and notes 
<https://www.routledge.com/Information-and-Communication-Technology-for-Development-ICT4D/Heeks/p/book/9781138101814#eresource>) 
support use for teaching and training purposes, and inspection copies 
can be requested for those planning to adopt the book as a core text.

I am happy to answer questions about use of the book and materials for 
educational purposes.

With good wishes
