New technologies in communications, office automation and information management require modifications and improvements to buildings that were not designed to incorporate the specialized requirements of these technologies.

Recognizing that new technologies, including information and communications technologies, present an opportunity to accelerate development, especially in developing countries, and noting that access to those technologies remains uneven and that a digital divide still prevails,

In the field of information technology (IT) and communications, Syria has developed a strategy for the relevant technologies.

Substantially increased emphasis will be placed on in situ continuing education and information exchange, using new communications technologies.

It is also planned to expand its communications capability with more technologically advanced equipment and material and personnel trained in the latest technologies for inter and intra mission communications.

The new communications technologies have enabled many of these organizations to network across the nations, thereby strengthening their knowledge and influence.

They recommended making an in depth study of new communications technologies and their social impact on the behaviour of population groups.

The application of appropriate communications technologies is being closely examined in conjunction with other United Nations agencies, notably UNESCO and UNDP.

The United Nations Information and Communications Technologies Task Force created in 2002 at the request of the Economic and Social Council had been harnessing such technologies for human resources development as a key priority.

The advantage of those technologies lies in higher communications capacity, greater network flexibility and the use of small and inexpensive ground stations.

This will be done by people in SIDS working in collaboration and interacting using appropriate computer communications technologies and appropriate telecommunications systems.

While increased contacts among countries, the development of technologies and communications and the relaxation of border controls had positive aspects, they also fostered transnational crime.

(e) Advising on the ways in which the potential of communications technologies, such as tele conferencing and electronic mail, can be exploited to the full.

It was believed that the Internet and mobile communications, then infant technologies, would make it unnecessary for people to live in crowded and expensive urban hubs.

In addition, space technologies are particularly important for developing countries, impacting on critical areas, such as communications, education, health and environment, food security and disaster management.

Improved communications technologies, discretionary funding and the creation of country specific information products have all helped United Nations field offices in their outreach to national audiences.

14. Stresses the necessity of freely using the media and new information and communications technologies to create the conditions for a renewed dialogue among cultures and civilizations

Methodologies for vulnerability assessment, reporting in national communications, research and systematic observation, funding issues, adaptation technologies, addressing adverse effects of climate change, and impacts of response measures.

Care would have to be taken to ensure that the final document of the Summit fully addressed the issue of women's access to information and communications technologies.

The support of the United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM) to the Network of African Women Economists had increased women's access to information and communications technologies.

Island countries with advanced information and communications technologies and political stability are more favourably placed for these activities, such as the northern Caribbean and western Atlantic islands.
