Abstract

The context, objectives and realizations of the MISTICA project (Methodology and Social Impact of the Information and Communication Technologies1 in Latin America) are presented at a halfway stage. This paper expresses the results of reflections of a complex collective process, which go beyond this project and give a vision of the regional environment, from the academic and civil society perspectives, as for the SOCIETY-ICT relationship. Particular attention is paid to the lessons learned during the management of this regional project. The aim is about reaching out the originality of a project for which the process is as important as the goal, and which follows constantly this principle, maintaining a difficult balance between methodological experiments and content. Given the large number of ingredients necessary for the management of the Mistica project, the scope of this article is to describe the articulations of these ingredients rather than to offer a detailed description of each aspect of the project. The reader can obtain more information using the links to specific pages of the project web-site (http://funredes.org/mistica)
