Abstract
This paper addresses cooperation between countries in the Global South based on information and communications technologies (ICTs) and also triangular cooperation including partners in the developed countries. It is argued that now is an important time for research and action in this space and in information and communications technologies for development (ICT4D) more generally. Some opportunities are identified, selecting mainly from papers in the IFIP WG9.4 conference in Dar‐es‐Salaam, Tanzania, in May 2019. The paper has a strong critical dimension, asking questions such as who is driving ICT4D projects, who benefits from the work, and are the less advantaged adequately included in the process. The paper ends with five broad principles on which further ICT4D research could build.
