Now that the United Nations Information and Communication Technologies Task Force has morphed into the new United Nations Global Alliance for ICT Policy and Development, Dr. Welty serves the Global Alliance as an observer/member. He will attend the inaugural meeting of the Alliance in Kuala Lumpur from 19-20 June 2006 and is a candidate for membership on its Strategy Council. Until late 2005, when the UNICT Task Force completed its international mission and began morphing in early 2006 into the new United Nations Global Alliance for ICT Policy and Development, Dr. Welty served as an observer/member of the following UNICT Task Force working groups and regional networks (all links open in a separate window):

Enabling Environment Working Group
Human Resource Development and Capacity Building Working Group
ICT Policy and Governance Working Group
Low Cost Connectivity and Access Working Group
National and Regional e-Strategies Working Group
African Stakeholders (ASN) Regional Network
Europe and Central Asia Regional Network
Moscow Node Regional Network

The working groups and regional networks, to the extent that they have continuing relevance in the new United Nations Global Alliance for ICT Policy and Development, may continue to function. Dr. Welty expects to continue to serve as an observer/member of the working groups and regional networks whose missions will be subsumed under the Global Alliance.
