Strategic Action for
a Sustainable Knowledge & Information Age (SASKIA) |
An RTD road map for
the Information Society’s contribution to sustainable development |
The purpose of the
SASKIA Road Map is to identify those RTD actions which will be required over
tha next decade if we, in Europe, are to be enabled to achieve by 2030 the
state often referred to under the portmanteau term “Sustainable Information
Society”; that is, a situation in which the Information Society with its
associated technologies makes the greatest attainable contribution to
sustainability, whilst itself being sustainable. However, whilst the initial
focus is on Europe it is in the nature of the topic that the issues are
generally global in scale. |
