Welcome to the Holistic Technical Assessments for ICT4D documentation site. This collection of documents represents a set of perspectives, experiences, and guidelines on engaging with technology within the [Information and Communications Technology for Development (ICT4D)](https://www.unicef.org/topics/information-and-communication-technology) space. In particular, the work focuses on the benefits and impacts of adopting free and open-source software that is secure and privacy-focused. For this work, we deliberately use the term "assessment," though it may be interchangeably referred to as audits, reviews, or evaluations, depending on the context.

Partners come in various forms and sizes. They range from open-source, off-the-shelf tools hosted in the cloud to custom-tailored solutions designed for your specific needs. Some partners are responsive, helpful, and actively engaged in the process, while others may be uncooperative or lack the capacity to engage. Some may lack the resources for sustainability, while others might push technology on you with little transparency. We've learned that partners come with diverse configurations and egos, and it's up to you to determine what works best for your situation.

Let's first start with a foundational understanding of who may be involved in Digital Transformation projects, as partnerships with governments, civil society groups, academia, non-governmental organizations, private sector entities, and communities remain central to UNICEF’s approach. In our research, we found that there are several different stakeholders involved in Digital Transformation processes, and that they may be unique for each engagement. We categorize stakeholders into five roles:

Holistic technical assessments are comprehensive reviews that examine an organization or system in its entirety, rather than focusing on specific components in isolation. The goal of a holistic assessment is to understand the interconnections and overall functioning of all aspects of the entity being reviewed. This approach ensures that all relevant factors are considered, leading to more thorough and meaningful insights.

Technical assessments were conducted on four software projects that provide solutions in the realm of ICT4D. These projects were reviewed to assess their fitness for purpose, readiness for enhancement, maintainability, performance, and security.

The technical assessments involved a comprehensive review of the projects' documentation, source code, and deployment environments. Security audits were conducted to uncover vulnerabilities, and penetration testing was performed to assess the systems' resilience against cyberattacks. The assessments also examined the projects' software development practices, including testing procedures and DevSecOps methodologies.
