The 3rd IEEE/ACM International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies and Development (ICTD2009) will be held 17-19 April 2009 at Carnegie Mellon's state-of-the-art campus in Doha, Qatar. This conference will act as a focal point for new scholarship in the field of ICT and international development. Confirmed speakers include a Keynote by William H. Gates, Chairman of Microsoft Corporation and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

We invite submissions for ICTD2009, the third of an ongoing series of conferences, which follows successful events at Berkeley in May 2006 ( http://sims.berkeley.edu/ictd2006), and Bangalore in December 2007 ( http://research.microsoft.com/workshops/ictd2007)

We will have limited travel grants available for first authors of accepted papers, and will give priority to those who have difficulty covering the cost of travel. We are working to raise additional sponsorship to cover attendance of other participants.
