"The World Summit on
the Information Society offers a unique opportunity to shape the
future of the information society so that all people can enjoy these
benefits... It can help us to better understand just how the information
revolution is transforming our societies. Most of all, it provides
a platform for developing a shared vision of ways to create a truly
inclusive information society that serves and empowers all people." For the Net World Order conference - Bridging the Global Digital Divide - June 19, 2003 |

Bridging the digital divide
and building the edifice of a global, development-oriented Information
Society is dependent on the quality of information and knowledge
that can be made available to all. The World Summit Award, held
within the framework of the World Summit on the Information Society,
demonstrates the cutting edge in harnessing the vast potential of
the digital revolution in the service of humanity. It is my fervent
hope that this collaboration with WSA in bringing to the forefront
the finest examples of e-content and showcasing best practices from
around the world will go a long way in providing comprehensive shape
to the vision enunciated in Geneva and pave the road ahead to Tunis
and beyond. |

"My
personal vision is that we can together build, through the World
Summit on the Information Society, a new global solidarity founded
on a better mutual understanding between peoples and nations, of
a shared knowledge society for the future. The World Summit Award
will help us make this vision a reality by raising awareness of
the enormous creative potential of information and communication
technologies and by promoting , by its work, a global evolution
from an information society to a shared knowledge society." |
