WEBSITE DESIGN.
This website has been designed especially to
help professionals working under difficult conditions in developing countries.
Communications there are often expensive, and telephone lines and computer
equipment for internet connections slow. Web-pages with pop-ups and
audio-visual or moving images consume extra, costly, energy. Website texts are
therefore presented here on a plain background. First-line files are always
simple text files, to speed up navigation within the website. Photographs,
drawings, illustrations, charts and graphs can be viewed "on
demand".
Search engines rank this website as a leading resource on a wide range
of development-related issues.
