In conversation with Daniel Stauffacher on ICT4Peace - What is it? How can it help?
8 September 2007 by ICT4Peace Foundation

"Do you believe that the better use of technology can strengthen peace processes to the extent that there will be more peace 5 years hence than today?

Yes indeed. ICTs and in particular web 2.0 will create even more transparency and efficient tools for actors in the field of conflict prevention, mediation, conflict resolution and peace building."
Daniel Stauffacher, in conversation with Sanjana Hattotuwa , explores vital tenets of ICT4Peace. From ideas to action, Daniel Stauffacher explains the raison d'etre of ICT4Peace, where it is heading, the key challenges and vital opportunities for Information and Communications Technology in peacebuilding, conflict mitigation and other facets of the Foundation's mission.
