Upon the inception of the National Strategy for the Sultanate of Oman the Oman Digital Society (e.oman) in 2003 and its revision in 2010, Oman has taken concrete steps to fulfil its national and international obligations towards streamlining ICT, transforming communities and integrating societies.

In this context, WSIS Action Lines have served as an invaluable framework for e.oman and provided pivotal milestones to its goals. Of particular note is the WSIS Forum and its components, which provide a remarkable opportunity to learn and exchange how common human needs are attended to in diverse human experiences. In this sense, WSIS Action Lines dovetail the MDG framework. Enormous efforts have been exerted by several governments to achieve these MDGs.
