Net Gains for Women in Africa

Abstract

Jennifer Radloff and Natasha Primo focus on African women's initiatives and organizations using new communication technologies for development, gender justice and social change. Based on research commissioned by the Association for Progressive Communications (APC) – Africa Women and the African Women's Development and Communications Network (FEMNET) and undertaken by Gender Links Associates, they look at issues faced by women using ICTs, how these are being addressed and what creative projects are being undertaken through the strategic employment of ICTs (APC – Africa Women, FEMNET and Gender Links Associates, 2002).
