Mobile phones and social media in the global south
While the benefits of e-governance have been observed in many high-income developed economies, there is still much skepticism about its applicability in the global South.
E-governance or “electronic governance” is the application of information and communications technology (ICT) to government functions and processes so as to bring about efficient and effective governance. Unlike the comprehensive planning, political and technical support that e-governance projects in developed countries have, many of the e-governance projects implemented in developing countries do not have such an advantage.
