The “2nd Euro-Africa Cooperation Forum on ICT Research” (Learning and Reflecting on ICT Collaborative Research and Development - Projecting the Future of ICT Research in Africa) is organised by the FP7 EuroAfrica-ICT EU-funded project (coordinated by Sigma Orionis) and is supported by the African Union Commission (AUC) and the European Commission (EC - DG INFSO - International Relations Unit) under the Information Communication Technology (ICT) theme of the Seventh Framework Programme (FP7). Organised on February 4, 2010, at the UNCC in Addis Ababa (Ethiopia) the “2010 Euro-Africa Cooperation Forum on ICT Research” is a follow-up of the highly successful Forum held in Brussels, Belgium in March 2009. The EuroAfrica-ICT project aims at promoting and supporting the development of Euro-Africa cooperation on ICT research between sub-Saharan Africa, the Caribbean and Europe. To achieve this objective, a set of four main activities are developed: supporting EuroAfrica-ICT policy dialogues; creating awareness on the 7th Research Framework Programme (FP7) and ICT; strengthening consultation between key stakeholders in the field; and supporting the development of partnerships on ICT research.
