How does SITIA work?
SITIA works cooperatively with
grass-roots, non-governmental, development and international organizations to
help them achieve access to and to disseminate pertinent agricultural
information. This is done through the design, construction and use of information
technologies.
SITIA provides information technology
development services by identifying needs, developing projects and
contracting with appropriate organizations to provide the needed solutions.
It does this through cooperation with pertinent partners. It also develops
and provides human resources services in the use, design and implementation
of information technology solutions with emphasis in the agricultural
disciplines.
In particular:
- SITIA adapts and applies modern information
technology to meet the unique needs of agricultural scientists,
extension agents and others involved with agriculture.
- SITIA is effective in providing mechanisms for
the transfer of appropriate information technology through training,
assistance with the licensing of software and the identification and
implementation of cost-effective computer technologies.
- SITIA develops efficient and appropriate
networking and Internet services for finding information relevant to
institutional and country-level agriculture needs.
- SITIA helps agricultural organizations assess
information technology needs and plan and implement information
technology projects in cost-effective and sustainable ways.
- SITIA builds partnerships between information
providers and information consumers and between commercial and
non-commercial institutions regardless of their location.
- SITIA facilitates the cost-effective exchange
of agricultural knowledge.
