标题Assessment of the progress made in the implementation of and follow-up to the outcomes of the World Summit on the Information Society
摘要
Stresses the need to bridge the digital divide and to ensure that the benefits of new technologies, especially information and communication technologies, are available to all, a need that poses a challenge for many countries, which are forced to choose between many competing objectives in their development planning and in demands for development funds, while having limited resources; recalls the importance of close coordination among the leading action line facilitators and with the secretariat of the Commission; encourages all stakeholders to contribute to the online consultations regarding the "desirability of the continuation" of the Internet Governance Forum, as envisaged in para. 76 of the Tunis Agenda, taking into consideration the stakeholders in developing areas that have been unable to get connected online, and urges the Secretary-General to take all appropriate measures to have broad-based consultations; encourages all stakeholders to continue their efforts to implement the World Summit vision of a people-centred, inclusive and development-oriented information society so as to enhance digital opportunities for all people in order to help to bridge the digital divide; urges the UN entities still not actively cooperating in the World Summit implementation through the UN System and its follow-up to take the necessary steps and commit to a people-centred, inclusive and development-oriented information society and to catalyse the attainment of the internationally agreed development goals, including those contained in the UN Millennium Declaration; encourages collaboration of the World Summit action line facilitators and moderators concerning action lines C3, access to information and knowledge, C7, e-science, and C7, e-health, with the Commission in the context of its traditional mandate.
