Samenvatting
This book records some of the activities of two of NiZA’s Angolan partners (Rádio Ecclésia in Luanda, and ANGONET in Huambo), with old and new Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). It gives an idea of the impact, or probable impact, that the projects are having or will have in Angola. While this book demonstrates the positive impact of ICTs in a post-war context, it does not have the pretension that they are the answer to Angola’s information and communication challenges. However, by strengthening the capabilities of the people who work on these two projects, Angola’s media and information sector will be improved, in turn strengthening Angolan civil society and ultimately the lot of ordinary Angolans.
