Job Title :

Contribution : Access and usage of digital tools empower women and girls by providing essential information and services for health, safety, education, and economic growth opportunities. The lack of access to the Internet and basic digital skills limits women’s ability to participate in the digital economy, obtain good education, access healthcare services and participate in the civil discourse. The United States believes that without major changes in policies concomitant with a significant increase in investment many of the benefits of technological changes will be out of the reach of women, thus potentially exacerbating current gender inequalities.
