WORD is an initiative to improve the capacity of women led initiatives to collect gender disaggregated data. We work with organizations and government institutions working in areas that have technology challenges such as low internet access and language barriers. In addition, we engage organizations that are addressing challenges of harmful cultural practices against women. This is achieved through developing technology-based channels for communities to report cases of harmful cultural practices to authorities and organizations. We have developed a platform, WORD Voice, for voice data collection and visualization mechanisms for harmful cultural practice report cases.
We train communities to report cases of harmful cultural practices through WORD Voice.
