With the emergence of the ‘new agriculture’ and the availability and rapid uptake of information and communication technology (ICT) tools, governments are refocusing development resources in rural areas. Excellent recent reviews and studies provide information on the vision and momentum towards bringing information and knowledge to the village level (Arunachalam, 2004; Kuriyan and Toyama, 2007; Dossani et al., 2005). This list of publications and web links serves as a useful resource on community development and village-based knowledge systems.
