ICT4Peace: STRATEGIC USE OF ICTS IN CRISIS MANAGEMENT New York, 15 November 2007 Statement of Martti Ahtisaari, former President of Finland I am a strong believer in the UN system and would welcome the appropriate UN agencies to stand up and take the leadership in these issues. This, to my mind, could be one important outcome of this process and a significant marker of the international community’s commitment to the values and principles to save lives as embodied in the ICT4Peace process. In support of the ICT4Peace process, I believe we need an ongoing dialogue process at the UN in New York once or twice a year with Governments and key actors from Business, Civil society and Academia to tackle the issues of information management, setting data and information management standards.
