Web Content Development

Why IATP Develops Internet Resources

Over 75 percent of all the information currently available on the Internet is in English. Considering the fact that English is not widely spoken in many countries of Eurasia, this statistic serves to lessen the usefulness of the Internet for many citizens of the countries in which IATP works. IREX works to develop Internet resources in English but places special emphasis on developing resources in local languages, making Internet usage more relevant for users.

Three Types of Web Content the Program Develops:

Web Content Developed with Local Audiences

IATP partners with local individuals and organizations to create web content. Partnering typically takes the form of training and consultation. A local organization, for example, has content that it wishes to publish to the Web through an organizational website. IATP provides training to the organization in how to set up basic site architecture as well as how to design, create and post content online in the form of a website.
