                        As part of WSIS' work on gender mainstreaming, WSIS Gender Trendsetters have been appointed to act as trailblazers and take action in strengthening gender equality. Each Trendsetter has chosen a specific challenge or pledge to advance gender mainstreaming efforts in the field of ICTs.
This Knowledge Cafe will be a conversational process in which participants have the opportunity to share experiences, insights and information with one another. The session will begin with a panel discussion featuring keynote speakers, followed by breakout rooms where participants will exchange on topics related to the gender mainstreaming in the context of digital inclusivity.
