I recently had the honor of leading a group of tech, development and gender folks in a discussion around Girls and ICTs at the Technology Salon. The conversation revolved around 5 aspects I wrote about in an earlier blog post On Girls and ICTs:
- Tension between participation and protection
- Online behavior is an extension of, and a potential amplifier of offline behavior
- Qualifying the digital divide
- Girls' involvement in developing and designing ICT solutions for their own needs
- Research on Girls and ICTs
