Information Communications Technology for
Development

ICT can influence governance processes possibly in 3 ways:

Technical role : Automation of repetitive governance tasks and thereby improving efficiency of governance processes. For instance, automated filing of tax forms, e-voting, periodic information reporting etc.  
Supportive role: Use of ICT to complement existing efforts and processes to improve governance.  For instance, use of Internet to catalyse existing efforts towards transparency in government information and functioning, or embedding use of emails in connecting decision-makers with their constituencies.    
Innovative role : Use of ICT to initiate new governance services or new mechanisms for improved service delivery which would be impossible through non-ICT modes. For instance, online checking of status of an application (from remote and beyond office hours); providing instant access to the same information to all individuals through emails and website; ability to instantly access, compare or triangulate information from outside of the constituency or government sources etc. 
MODELS:
1. Broadcasting/ Wider-Dissemination Model
2. Critical Flow Model 
3. Comparative Analysis Model 
4. E-Advocacy/ Lobbying and Pressure Group Model 
5. Interactive- Service Model

Each of these models exhibit several variations depending on the local situation and governance activities performed through these models.
