On 15th March, the WSIS Forum 2022 kicked off. Its first two weeks drew together over 1200 participants from academia, government, civil society, the technical community, and the private sector.
The WSIS Process, through implementation of WSIS Action Lines and in alignment with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, actively promotes and advocates for digital gender inclusion. As part of the Gender Mainstreaming initiatives, WSIS Gender Trendsetters will act as trailblazers and work to strengthen gender equality through a range of initiatives and activities. Their work will contribute to the growth of the ICTs and Gender Mainstreaming efforts at the WSIS Forum and beyond.
