We live in this moment the numerical period. Indeed, the convergence of telecommunications, computer science and

audio-visual gave us today new Information Communication Technologies (ICT). ICT today are present in our daily and

facilitates it to us. Many world summits were and are the implementation of the information Society. The World Summit of

the Information Society (WSIS) of Tunis, November 2005 adopted a final document (Tunis Commitment) which is

presented in the form of a moratorium in favour of the Information Society building in the service or development. The

Tunis Summit, while reaffirming its commitment to benefit best possible from the capacities and the potential of the ICT,

invites all the governments to adapt the ICT for a sustainable development while strengthening the national, regional and

international co-operation. Following the 2005 Tunis Commitment, African Union, organization of economic integration

seized this opportunity and launched for the first time the African ICT Week (AICTW).

The week meant to provide a constant reflection of the gains Africa has made in harnessing ICTs to realize a knowledgebased

economy. Today, Knowledge and Information hold massive potential for propelling the African continent

development process, building all inclusive knowledge economy and ultimately achieving the millennium goals by 2015.

ICT are for Africa, a way, other that linear, to reach the development and thus to make a success of its transformation of

an agricultural company into a company of knowledge.

Indeed we need to multiply our efforts in integrating the use of ICTs in all our activities, our methods, working tools, our

plans and programs of development. The AICTW should provide a platform for creating awareness about the

opportunities, challenges and benefits derived by adoption of ICTs in Africa.
