Project Outcomes
I was involved in working on the WSIS stocktaking database, one of the world's largest databases, containing projects fostering the development of the information society and the implementation of the WSIS Declaration of Principles and Plan of Action. As the WSIS stocktaking is a continuous process and the database remains open for all new submissions, we had to increase its attractiveness and improve the user-friendliness of the environment.
