With Angela Minayo, we discuss what Online Gender-Based Violence is, how it affects people in Kenya and how it has become a pervasive, structural issue. But we also talk about innovative solutions: Angela shares her work on the Digital Enquirer Kit, a free e-learning guide to improve knowledge and learn new ways to shape a safer online space. The Digital Enquirer Kit was developed by KICTANet and the DTC Kenya and is hosted on the e-learning platform atingi. The DTC Kenya is an initiative co-financed by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and the European Union.

Women in Tech ambassador Teuta Sahatqija shares about her experience as a computer science engineer in a male-dominated field, the importance of women tech innovators for the young country of Kosovo and how GIZ’s Digital Transformation Center (DTC) supports them. Dea Hajdaraj from GIZ Kosovo tells more on the DTC’s work towards bridging the gender digital divide. The DTC Kosovo is an initiative co-financed by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and the European Union and implemented in partnership with the Innovation and Training Park (ITP) Prizren.

As digital transformation accelerates, the unequal access and use of digital technologies, digital skills, ICT education and leadership between men and women as well as gender-diverse people has been widening in the past years - this is called the gender digital divide.

In the podcast Women leading Digital we interview brilliant women shaping digital transformation and tech around the world.

We discuss their experiences in navigating a traditionally male-dominated domain, the solutions they work on to bridge the gender digital divide, and how they inspire others to break down barriers.
