The International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) invites you to the 12th International Conference on Social Implications of
Computers in Developing Countries. The conference will be held in Jamaica, on 19-22 May 2013.
The Working Group 9.4 of the International Federation for Information Processing gathers scholars and practitioners that deal with the issue
on how ICT affects social development. In the last three decades this issue has been attracting scholars from information systems and a variety
of other areas such as development studies, political science, political economy, social anthropology, and sociology.
The theme of the 12th International Conference of the IFIP 9.4 Working Group 2013 in Jamaica is “Into the Future.” The importance of this
theme is fundamental to our research domain, namely how might information and communication technologies shape the future of
development within developing counties. At the conference we seek to not only present scholarly conference papers in and around the
different tracks but also to provoke thought and discussion in and around how we might set the agenda for the future for ICT4D research
and practice.
