| Design / Operational Overarching
Themes:
- Although capacity to handle all applications of information
technology must be incorporated in the "center" as of
its deployment, actual use of the applications will start
by providing only basic capabilities. As people grow their
uses and habits, and as the community organizes itself
around the "center", other applications will be brought
on line.
- There must be "buy-in" on the part of local leadership.
The "center" must be seen as something that enhances opportunities
in the community, and provides value-added opportunities
for those people already working in health, education,
and communications. It must not be seen as a threat.
