    The Conference will consider the perspectives and vision of the i2010 (i2010-European Information society in 2010) programme and how this will stimulate the promotion, development, and development of e-Learning content, products and services and the contribution of these to lifelong learning. i2010 is the European Commission’s strategic policy framework laying out broad policy guidelines for the information society and the media up to 2010.
