"In order to respond to developing countries' need for practical, relevant guidance and assistance in an ever-changing environment, in late 2004, infoDev, in cooperation with the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), began the development of an ICT Regulation Toolkit, a hands-on, web-based update and expansion of infoDev's successful Telecommunications Regulation Handbook of 2000. The Toolkit is intended to assist regulators with the design of effective and enabling regulatory frameworks to harness the latest technological and market advances. Its most prevalent themes are the impact of changing technology, the role of competition, and the regulatory implications of the transition from traditional telephony to next generation networks (NGNs). Seven modules in all will be available when the Toolkit is fully completed by July 2008. Each module offers both a summary and a more detailed overview of its respective topic with links to hundreds of practice notes and reference documents (over 850 in the entire Toolkit) drawn from global experience." |
