"If the world is serious about achieving the Millennium Development Goal of halving the number of people living in extreme poverty by the year 2015, ICT must figure prominently in the effort. Everyone - governments, civil society, private sector businesses - has a vital stake in fostering digital opportunity and putting ICT at the service of development."

Kofi Annan, United Nations Secretary-General 1996-2006 UNCTAD Report on E-commerce and Development, 2002

 
Digital Pipeline promotes affordable and environmentally responsible reuse of used computers to help technologically disadvantaged schools and communities in Africa and other parts of the world.

 

Policies and Standards

Digital Pipeline Federation was founded on the idea that refurbished PCs can deliver tremendous value for schools and community groups who need affordable access to computer equipment.

We recognise that there are already organisations handling refurbishment and redeployment of PCs for good causes – but the demand for refurbished computers from those who need them far outstrips the available supply.

Digital Pipeline aims to significantly increase the volume of PC refurbishment and donations from organisations that would like to help but don’t feel able to because of the perceived risks to their business and reputation.

Digital Pipeline has developed policies and standards that its partners are expected to observe and to be audited on so that Donors can be confident that partners who handle their donations mitigate these risks and deliver maximum benefit for Beneficiaries.
