The World Health Organisation has launched an initiative with commercial information providers to supply research centres in Africa, Central Asia, and Eastern Europe with low-cost Internet access to scientific information. Discussions are also underway to encourage Elsevier Science, the multinational publisher, to join the initiative that is currently being led by the Open Society Institute (part of the Soros Foundation network), and information providers, ISI and Silver Platter.
