SPIDER is a centre of enablement dedicated to coordinate, stimulate and deliver inclusive digitalisation that benefits all via global networks and local partnerships. We bring together actors with a common interest in using Information and Communication Technology (ICT) as a tool to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals/ Agenda 2030. We coordinate a strategic programme for ICT in developing regions. Our partners include private sector, Civil Society Organisations, Universities and Government agencies, in Sweden, the Nordic countries, Europe and in our partner countries in Africa, Latin America and Asia. SPIDER is hosted by the Department of Computer and Systems Sciences at Stockholm University. We support projects and initiatives and provide professional services to ICT projects, deliver digitalisation research with contextual anchoring, focusing on assistance in the deployment of appropriate ICTs, the creation of enabling digital infrastructure and environments in developing countries, and policy and regulatory issues.
