     >The purpose of this posting is to introduce you to the Global Development
     >Gateway (GDG), a new initiative that is being launched by the World Bank.
     >
     >The Gateway is an Internet initiative being established to serve the broadest
     >possible development community - both globally and through Country Gateways.
     >The purpose is to foster partnerships and create effective development
     >strategies by bringing together many different stakeholders  to contribute
     >solutions: local and donor communities, civil society, specialized
     >agencies, the
     >private sector, and many other partners.  The Gateway will provide access to
     >better information and know-how for the development community around the
     >world.
     >It will also enable development partners to share information on development
     >activities, trends, funding, and commercial opportunities.
     >
     >The project involves designing, constructing, and operating Internet portals
     >with  "guided" content on development projects, best practices, research
     >findings, case studies, procurement services, commercial opportunities in
     >developing countries, news, and directories. To ensure a fresh approach, the
     >Gateway is becoming an independent, not-for-profit foundation with a Board of
     >Governors representing different communities.
     >
     >It should not surprise you that the topic of culture and development will
     >play
     >an important role in the Global Development Gateway. I have joined the Global
     >Development Gateway team to oversee the formation of a culture and
     >development
     >portal. The process will be a collaborative effort across the agencies
     >dedicated
     >to and interested in culture as well as agencies involved in development.
     >
     >I am pleased to inform you that as a first step in creating a culture and
     >development portal, Patrick Boylan, Professor of Heritage Policy and
     >Management,
     >City University of London, has agreed to be the "guide" or architect for the
     >culture and development portal. Professor Boylan and I will be forming an
     >advisory committee to help bring together content for the Culture and
     >Development Portal and to identify key topics and issues that can be
     >posted on
     >the site.
     >
     >We hope to have a demonstration site available over the next few months.  The
     >success of the Culture and Development Portal will largely depend on your
     >help
     >and cooperation in serving as a content source, in suggesting other content
     >providers, and in helping us create a "meeting place" for user communities.
     >
     >
     >Please watch the CHDEV-L over the next few months for requests for
     >information.
     >In the meantime you can visit the Global Development Gateway planning site
     >at: <http://www.worldbank.org/gateway>http://www.worldbank.org/gateway
