Project description
Bridging the gap for ethical digital development
In an era defined by digital evolution, a stark global divide hampers progress, leaving low and middle-income economies on the fringes of technological advancement. Disparity in digital access and standardisation exacerbates this divide, hindering collaborative growth. With this in mind, the EU-funded InDiCo-Global project aims to build bridges across borders, extending the success of its predecessor, InDiCo. By uniting formal European Standardisation Organisations (ESOs), it will create a comprehensive understanding of the policy, regulatory, and standardisation landscapes in partner countries/regions. This effort seeks to unite technical communities and policymakers, fostering mutual understanding and cooperation on digital policies and ICT standardisation, paving the way for a more inclusive and interconnected global future.
Objective
InDiCo-Global follows-up on the InDiCo project implemented by ETSI, extending and complementing its action in a new set of targeted geographies within low and middle income economies while leveraging methodology, networks and knowledge developed during the execution of InDiCo.
The proposal aims at building bridges between technical communities as well as policy makers on topics relating to Digital policies and the related ICT standardisation priorities, with a view to develop mutual understanding of policy, regulatory and technical approaches to ICT/digital as well as to enhance cooperation on ICT standards and seek alignment in policies and regulations, leading to a wider use of EU standards, in turn supporting increased trade and propagation of EU values.
InDiCo-Global will therefore:
- develop a sound understanding of the policy, regulatory and standardization landscape of partner countries/regions
- foster awareness of the European Standardisation System (ESS), its deliverables in the context of ICT/Digital and how they support global acceptance and interoperability,
- promote EU policies and standards (developed or in the making) for select ICT/digital technologies and develop cooperation around them,
- create and leverage opportunities for capacity building with partner countries/regions
While InDiCo was implemented by ETSI only, InDiCo-Global will see all three formal European Standardization Organizations (ESOs) join forces and leverage their unparalleled ability to combine their respective models and reach into all possible standardization-related communities: formal (ISO/IEC/ITU, national standards bodies) or not, national, regional or global, traditional or novel/disruptive (e.g. open source groups). With support of experts in communication, dissemination and exploitation (Martel) as well as handling of FSTP (Trust-IT), InDiCo-Global will be best positioned to contribute to a human-centred and ethical development of digital and industrial technologies.
