dc.description.abstract	Information and Communication Technology for Development (ICT4D) is argued to have high potential value across all sectors, both public and private; and at multiple levels, be it fighting poverty; improving healthcare; providing better education; fostering gender equality or extending global partnerships for development. Despite this significance and huge potential, it is still not clear, to what extent ICTs are contributing to development, especially that of the relatively poor members of the society. Affordances Theory which has roots in ecological psychology has in the recent past been used in Information Systems (IS) research. This paper explores how affordances theory has been used in ICT4D research. A review of literature was conducted and recommendations made	en_US
