The main output of the project will be an improved policy dialogue in the field of ICT, reflecting the needs of the WBC and their priorities in future ICT Work Programmes, thus providing the ground for enhanced participation from the target region. The project will last from January 2009 to December 2010.

In this framework the WINS-ICT portal inherits and further deepens the work initiated by the SCORE portal and acts in close cooperation with the WBC-INCO-NET and ICT-WEB-PROMS projects and related websites
