UNIDO Joint Initiative with Microsoft Announced Today

Hello -

 

I feel that the initiative on refurbished computers that we signed with Microsoft today at the ICT Best Practices Forum is a symbol of our partnership and steadfast commitment to uplift entrepreneurs in Africa. The vision is to establish a pilot refurbishment centre in Uganda that will give small and medium enterprises access to affordable technologies and PCs. As an extension of our initiative, we will also look into the possibility to create an e-waste facility in East Africa to mitigate the problem of e-dumping on the continent.
