Department of ICT

The Government of Nauru has a large investment in computing resources and has encouraged the government departments to use these resources effectively to share information and knowledge in support of the government’s mission. The computer facilities are a shared system made available to promote atmosphere for the government, create a sense of commitment to the local and global community and assist in preparation for living in a complex technological society. The network infrastructure, access to the Internet and online resources, powerful servers, and an increasing number of personal computers are assets in which we may take pride. Their value increases the more we take advantage of them.
