Abstract

Relationship between information and communication technologies (ICTs) and poverty remains unclear.  The result is likely to remain such if focus is not given to the understanding of needs of the poorer community whose problems ICT interventions are supposed to solve. The present study is an attempt in that direction and it does so by trying to understand the media habit of poor farmers in Bangladesh.  The study covered 7 major agricultural sectors across 15 districts (out of 64) of Bangladesh. It is hoped that the detailed sector disaggregated findings of the study can be used in better designing of interventions to leverage ICTs, which can address key constraints in different agricultural value chains within Bangladesh.
了解孟加拉国贫困农民的信息需求和媒体习惯
信息通信技术(ict)与贫困之间的关系尚不清楚。如果不把重点放在了解较贫穷社区的需求上,结果很可能仍然是这样,而信息和通信技术干预应该解决这些社区的问题。本研究就是朝这个方向进行的尝试,它通过试图了解孟加拉国贫穷农民的媒体习惯来实现这一目标。这项研究涵盖了孟加拉国15个县(64个县中)的7个主要农业部门。希望该研究的详细部门分类结果可以用于更好地设计利用信息通信技术的干预措施,这可以解决孟加拉国不同农业价值链中的关键制约因素。
