URL: From comms at afrinic.net Mon Apr 7 12:45:07 2025 From: comms at afrinic.net (comms at afrinic.net) Date: Mon, 7 Apr 2025 12:45:07 +0000 Subject: [rpd] Register for the "Stories of Resilience: Celebrating African Women Shaping Digital Transformation" Webinar on 17th April 2025. Message-ID: (Apologies for cross-posting) Dear Colleagues, You are invited to register for the "Stories of Resilience: Celebrating African Women Shaping Digital Transformation" Webinar. As we celebrate this year?s International Girls in ICT Day themed, ?Girls in ICT for Inclusive Digital Transformation,? we are reminded that Africa's digital future must be built by all and that includes the voices, innovations, and leadership of women. * Date: 17th April 2025 * Time: 10:00 -11:30 UTC * Duration: 1:30 Hrs * Registration link Across Africa, the digital revolution is reshaping economies, industries, and societies. Yet, despite the rapid growth of ICT, women remain significantly underrepresented in the sector. Structural barriers, societal expectations, and workplace biases continue to limit the participation of women in the very field that is driving the continent?s future. Despite the odds, there are trailblazing women across Africa who have defied these odds, risen to the challenge, shattered glass ceilings, and proved that the future of ICT must be inclusive. Through candid conversations, the webinar will highlight the challenges, triumphs, and impact of their work in a ?male-dominated? field. The panelists will offer insights, mentorship, and nuggets of wisdom to young women aspiring to break into and thrive in ICT, demonstrating that inclusion is not just necessary but essential for Africa?s digital future. This webinar is not just about storytelling, it is about building a movement that fosters diversity and equity in ICT, inspiring the next generation of African women to become leaders, innovators, and change makers in the digital space. Key Takeaways * Gain insights as to why diversity in ICT is crucial for Africa?s growth and how women can take the lead in shaping an inclusive digital transformation. * Learn from the real-life experiences of trailblazing African women in tech, as they share their challenges, achievements, and impact. * Be inspired and motivated to pursue a career in technology, with actionable lessons on breaking barriers and stepping into leadership roles in ICT. ________________________________ Secure your spot and register here.
