In Africa, only the Seychelles, Mauritius and South Africa are included in the top 100. Given the close relationship between ICT uptake and national income, most poor countries rank at the low end of the IDI. In particular, the Least Developed Countries – many of which are in Africa still have very limited access to ICTs, especially in terms of broadband infrastructure and household access to ICTs.
Prices for information and communication technology (ICT) services are falling worldwide, yet broadband Internet remains outside the reach of many in poor countries, ITU said in its report released on Wednesday. The report features the latest ICT Development Index (IDI), which ranks 159 countries according to their ICT level and compares 2007 and 2008 scores.
