Devel-L

The Devel-L list on "Technology Transfer in International Development" was run by VITA (Volunteers in Technical Assistance). It was for the latter half of the 1990s the premier forum for discussion of international development. It was closed in 2001.

The list was described this way: "VITA's public, on-line discussion list, DEVEL-L, provides a forum for the exchange of ideas and information on a wide range of issues and topics related to technology transfer in international development; for example, technologies, communications in development, sustainable agriculture, women in development, the environment, small enterprise development, meetings, book reviews."
