In post-war Southern Sudan members of an assessment team are being created. Southern Sudanese, and a trained group of local experts are now available to contribute to the ongoing efforts to educate children at risk, the Sudanese government is trying by any means possible to move rapidly into a period of reconstruction and rebuilding of data which will be an important foundation for advancing education. Through this assessment vital information for planners and policymakers will be provided. The Ministry of Education, Science and Technology has been hard at work to create an important framework that will improve the design and delivery of education services for millions of children across Southern Sudan, long into the future. Sudan hope that one day the use of computers and technological appliances would be a widely useable source of information and communication for all Sudanese citizens yet seeing that there are more important issues which need funding prier to advancing IT education.

1. Calls upon large corporations such as Microsoft and EE PC to mass produce and establish distribution networks for the spread of their computers as a way to offer an easy means of technological education for children. 2. Urges governments to promote the use of technology and IT education by offering incentives and technology in return for labor or service. 3. Suggests that schools in LDC’s be supported by NGO’s with the appropriate technology in order to enable children to be familiar with and efficiently be able to use the newer types of technology. 4. Recommends that governments set up school programs which offer incentives to the children who are most technologically adept and functional in order to promote the interest in technology for children.
