Global Information Village Plaza

What is Global Information Village Plaza?

The Global Information Village Plaza was born out of the idea of going beyond the hype, rhetoric and ‘expert’ analysis by the happy few involved in the preparation of policies and programs supposed to support the transition into the “information society" or "digital economy.” Instead, it sought to give ASIS&T members -and information professionals at large- an opportunity to express their views about the challenges and opportunities that the so called "information society" represents in their personal and professional lives.
