About ITADITAD is
the acronym for the organization called "Information Technology Assistance
for Development". ITAD is a non-profit, non-governmental organization based
in Liberia (West Africa).
ITAD
is incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Liberia and accredited by the
Ministry of Planning and Economic Affairs.
The
corporation is comprised of a Board Directors, an Executive Director and a
functional management team. This organization was established for the development of human resource
and infrastructure in developing countries through the sharing and recycling of
technology (Technical-Know-How and Equipment). ITAD uses
Information Technology assistance
(Technical-Know-How and Equipment) as one
of our key tool. In our effort to alleviate illiteracy, ignorance, Conflicts,
Crimes, Poverty, and HIV infections in communities where majority of the
inhabitants live in abject poverty, we have design several human resource
development programs to capacitate and equip these poor people to improve their
lives, the lives of other and their community. We believe these poor people
needs to be involved in the development program, if it must be successful. This
is why we begin our programs at community level and then spread over an entire
country as we acquire the needed resources. We conduct adult literacy program,
Computer Literacy program, Counseling service, Workshops, Vocational skill
training, and other programs to capacitate these people to implement what they
have learned for the improvement of their lives, and their community. The primary
objectives of ITAD include: 1. Donation of computers, accessories and general communication equipment we receive, to institutions in need of these things, but can not afford the cost. 2. Assistance in the maintenance of computers and other equipment donated, to ensure that these devices function through its full lifespan for which they were manufactured. 3. Give out scholarships, as a means of addressing the charitable needs of the poor and less fortunate. 4. Conduct computer literacy training and other educational programs in our efforts to eradicate illiteracy, poverty and reduce HIV infection in developing countries. 5. Donate books and other learning material to institutions in need. 6. Conduct or commission research, compile, distribute or otherwise make accessible information on various topics and publish the results of such research for development. 7. Arrange free space (hosting) on the Internet for local NGOs websites. Please see our project page for the listing of our various projects. You may contact the below listed
