Centre for Development Informatics Commissioning of Six Thematic Papers:  ICTs and Climate Change Mitigation in the Context of Emerging Economies (Helen Roeth and Leena Wokeck).  Disaster Management, Communities & Climate Change: Role of ICTs (Nonita T. Yap).  ICT-Enabled Development of Climate Change Adaptive Capacity (Laxmi Prasad Pant).  Informational Governance of Climate Change Institutions in Developing Countries (Laurence Delina).  Climate Change as a Strategic Priority for ICT4D Organisations (Alan Finlay).  New and Emerging ICTs for Climate Change and Development (Stan Karanasios).

Centre for Development Informatics Conclusions From short-term to short- and long-term climate change- related impacts. Consideration of both opportunities and challenges. From reductive to systemic perspectives: broader development context and resilience. Next Steps 2011: Case studies, strategy briefings, book, & final international workshop.
