- The paper based on research under the programme on Strengthening Evidence-based Policy Works at Institute of Development Studies (IDS), examines the challenges to global goals for the equality and governance posed by control of Knowledge and ICT. It discusses the issue of knowledge sharing and its potential impact on people’s lives and how it is likely to contribute to or damage development agendas over the next 15 years. Examines the positive and negative implications that an increasingly digital world hold for achieving global development goals while making a case for greater attention to be paid to these on the part of the international community especially in relation to democratic governance, institutional accountability, responsiveness and transparency. Authors suggest how development practitioners and policymakers might best respond.
