The use of ICTs in education is a recent development in Asia and the Pacific, and quite uneven for the most part. While some countries have initiated a systematic use of technology in education, often supported by an ICT policy, many more countries are being left behind. The website has been set up to contribute towards addressing this disparity and promoting digital inclusion by demonstrating how ICT is being used and can be used to reach those excluded from learning and to improve the quality of education for all. It is also intended to share innovative methods of ICT use and of ICT-based teaching education, teaching-learning methods, and curriculum/materials development in schools and in other places of learning

The website provides information on ICT policy and strategy; integration of ICT in formal and non-formal education systems; innovative methods of ICT use in teaching/learning; professional development; research and application of indicators to evaluate the impact of ICT use in education; and links to many other websites and information resources. It is also aimed at building an online community and provides opportunities for the community to update and expand information resources.
