The Report presents an analysis of the diffusion and adoption of technology, particularly ICT in the region and its impact on overall economic growth, employment, poverty reduction, as well the provision of health and education services in the region. The report draws from several interesting case studies particularly from India and Bangladesh that illustrate how ICT is being used innovatively to improve the efficiency and transparency in the delivery of public services. The Report however reiterates that technology by itself does not result in wonders. It has to be accompanied with an educated and skilled population as well as basic infrastructure.

Mahbub ul Haq Centre's report on Food Security in South Asia is a valuable contribution towards the conceptual and empirical analysis of food security in South Asia. The high food and fuel inflation, and rising unemployment have put half a billion South Asians into poverty, and millions of children and women malnourished. The Report argues that the economic growth of the region must translate into people's wellbeing through ensuring their food security.
