With a persistent gender gap in digital access keeps women from unlocking technology’s full potential and their under representation in STEM education and careers remains a major barrier to their participation in tech design and governance. The pervasive threat of online gender-based violence—coupled with a lack of legal recourse—too often forces them out of the digital spaces they do occupy but still the female folk are resilient as well as persistent .
Suffice it to say we read of their latest conquests from this same digital space they are being discriminated from occupying , they triumph still. In this International Women’s Day edition , our focus is on those who have been consistent in their journey & impacting lives . For most like other women folk , their accomplishments have been against all odds, in fields that have historically neither welcomed nor appreciated them.
