Knowledge Café
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.
