(4) Bellanet
Since 2003 Bellanet has been directing resources to strengthening its presence in Latin America, Asia and Africa. In 2004-2005 Bellanet's presence in Asia and Latin America was increased and the Africa office in Kampala started operations, while discussions continued regarding a second proposed African node for Bellanet with another organization in Africa. The expansion of Bellanet presence in the South comes with challenges. A large part of the challenge associated with this strategy is integrating the Bellanet offices in the regions with their host organizations. Agreements are drawn up in each case outlining the mission and vision, target groups, strategic and operational plans and relationships with the different stakeholders in each of these organizations. The Bellanet International Secretariat is a multi-donor initiative created with the mission to promote and facilitate effective collaboration within the international development community, especially through the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) from its four offices in Ottawa, San José (Costa Rica), Kathmandu and Kampala.

(5) Commonwealth Connects
The Commonwealth Connects Programme is helping to bridge the deepening Digital Divide across the 53 countries of the Commonwealth. In an attempt to mitigate this increasing digital fragmentation, a collaborative effort of the Commonwealth Secretariat, Commonwealth partner agencies and member countries has formed the Commonwealth Connects Programme.It is a multi-stakeholder partnership aimed at tapping available Commonwealth resources to fast track positive change. It is a unique initiative that enables the transfer of technology and expertise across the whole Commonwealth. In 2005, the 53 Heads of Government met under the theme “Networking the Commonwealth for Development”. At a previous CHOGM, Heads of Government had endorsed what was previously the 'Commonwealth Action Programme for the Digital Divide', now known as the 'Commonwealth Connects Programme', that identified broad programme areas where the Commonwealth had a comparative advantage, in the context of international collaboration, due to a shared legacy of institutional and regulatory development.
