standard-setting work is addressed primarily to Member States, i.e. their
governments. The IFAP Template fully endorses the multi-stakeholder approach to
the development of the Information Society, however, and acknowledges that the
role of other stakeholders (especially entrepreneurs, network, service and
content providers, but also, of course, civil society and NGOs) is as (if not,
in some cases, more) important as that of governments. Nevertheless, this
depends on the specific circumstances, and also on the stage of the process of
developing the Information Society, in any particular country. The emphasis in
this Template is primarily on what governments and the civil service should do
and this was a deliberate choice, in keeping with the approach adopted in the
Tunis Agenda for the Information Society, given that the document may be most
useful in countries where the role of government policy and of the public
sector is especially important.
