Information and Monitoring NeedsInformation and Monitoring Needs
Context• There is a lot of academic and government information but is dispersed (not
integrated), not in the same database formats, not always available for all the people
• Information is duplicated, is not complementary, is located regionally.
• Decision making and academic research is not linked
effectively
• Partial monitoring
Needs• Networks, information systems and monitoring systems
• Shared databases
• Link between government (decision making) and academic institutions (research)
