Good Question indeed....
One can have affinity both Technical and Policy issues which is great BUT it doesn't warrant to specify that one Must have Technical aspect of issues in order to deal with Policy areas of engagements......
Might it be the reason that many initiatives are affected negatively by lack of the policies side of the game?
I am also awaiting for the Answer please..?
Thank you

Hello there,
Could someone please help me understand this? Why do the requirements for the candidates include "Should have a technical (IT, Computer Science) background" while the stated areas of involvement for potential successful candidates include, among others, internet development and ICT policies? Is the assumption that anybody significantly involved in internet development or ICT policies necessarily has a technical background?
Thanks,
