The Pan-Pacific Education and Communication
Experiments by Satellite or commonly called “PEACESAT”has
been working to lessen the information and communication technology
(ICT) divide in the Pacific Islands region for over 30 years. The
mission of PEACESAT is to facilitate “development”and “public
service” communications.
- "Development
communications" is the use of ICT to assist in the institution
and capacity building of an organization, community, state,
or nation.
- "Public
service telecommunications" is the use of ICT for the
purposes of education; public awareness and participation;
research; economic development; health, medical services, and
welfare; and emergency management by government, education,
health, and other non-profit organizations.
PEACESAT works collaboratively with partners
in the region to achieve its mission. Initially the PEACESAT network
was based solely on satellite telecommunications and now includes
public and private fiber, copper, and microwave network technologies.
This Web site will provide information about
us, the services we provide, projects that have been undertaken,
and information about our partners.
Please contact us if you have any questions
or need further assistance.
