The ISIF report strategy encourage grant recipients to documents their project activities in a variety of formats to share the knowledge and experience gained through the project implementation, as grant recipients are accountable for the support they have received. Reporting provides more visibility to each one of the projects and its outcomes, opportunities to find common ground and
establish alliances. Final reports are published under a Creative Commons license.
You can locate the ISIF projects using the following map available.

The successful projects showcase innovation, cooperation,
and technical knowledge, and have the potential to create social change in
their communities in areas such as IT infrastructure, health, or
multilingualism. The projects also reflect current issues in technical and
social discussion, including two projects that focus on IPv6 research and
deployment; exploring the opportunity for developing economies to get ahead in
the IPv6 challenge. Two other projects focus on the deployment of wireless
