The Director-General of UNESCO, Irina Bokova, signed an agreement on 11 February to launch a
US$12 million project to boost the information and communication technology capacity of West African universities, notably by creating a regional virtual library network. The project is part of a wide-ranging cooperation plan initiated in 2006 by UNESCO and the UEMOA. It aims to develop the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) to support an ongoing reform of higher education in the
UEMOA member states (Benin, Burkina Faso, Cote d'Ivoire, Guinea Bissau, Niger, Mali, Senegal and Togo).
