"Closing the digital divide and bringing home the benefits of the information society are important concerns to member countries of the Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA).

Key indicators need to be defined and statistical models that can be used to assess the current status of the information society, measure its many facets and monitor progress towards its realization must be developed. In order to be maximally effective, standardized indicators must be relevant to a wide variety of national circumstances and cultural contexts. This study aims to set guidelines for the development of a common benchmarking measurement model for the ESCWA region.
