The figure represents an increase of 173.68m since December 2000 when 407.1m people were online. The Nua study indicates that if anything, the digital divide between developed and developing nations is as wide as it ever was. While Europeans account for 32 per cent of global Internet users, only six per cent of the world's Internet users are based in Latin America, and just one per cent each in the Middle East and Africa. While both regions have seen a slight increase in the numbers of people who can access the Internet, the lack of telecoms infrastructures in these regions means that most citizens remain unconnected. Nua forecasts that over one billion people will be online by the end of 2005. Copyright Europemedia.
Appendix
Figure 1: The transatlantic Internet/Multimedia seminar Southeastern Europe (TIMSSE) is an introduction to multimedia pedagogy in the field of conflict prevention. Its content presents various approaches and schools of thought in the emerging field of international peace and conflict prevention using Waltz’s levels of analysis in Man, the State and War and assesses their relevance to the Balkans. Sources in the American, German and French literatures in international relations as well as Internet sites of the various international, governmental and non-governmental organizations involved in the Balkans provide TIMSSE’s conceptual and empirical foundation. The first module focuses on analytical perspectives in conflict prevention. The second module presents conceptions of nation and state in the Balkans. The third and fourth modules assess the role of technology in education and its relevance to the Balkans. The fifth module discusses the question “Why Conditional Independence?” with an analysis of The Follow-Up of the Kosovo Report. The sixth module focuses on the International Criminal Tribunal for Yugoslavia. The seventh module considers human development and conflict prevention: insights from UNDP. The eighth module highlights the Stability Pact for Southeastern Europe. The ninth module presents inquiries into aesthetic education: the historical meaning of holy monuments in Kosovo/a. The tenth module assesses European and transatlantic cooperation and competition in the Balkans. The eleventh module features an evaluation of the conflict prevention toolbox. The twelfth module analyzes the EU’s stabilization and association process for the Western Balkans. The thirteenth module evaluates the ethical issues surrounding humanitarian intervention in the Balkans. The fourteenth module discusses post-Yugoslav status questions. The last module is an evaluation of TIMSSE concepts and the implementation of multimedia pedagogy in practice with a comparative focus on the pedagogy’s potential applications in Africa.
