The objective of this program is to prompt and support improved information access by women and women organisations in both rural and urban areas, particularly WOUGNET members. Information Sharing WOUGNET uses and applies ICTs to create opportunities for information sharing and the exchange of knowledge. While our emphasis is directed towards Internet-based technologies, we are also interested in how these technologies can be integrated with traditional means of information exchange and dissemination including telephones, radio, video, television and print media. > WOUGNET Mailing List Networking WOUGNET promotes and supports networking of women and women organisations through the use of ICTs for sustainable development. WOUGNET is a growing network whose growth and member participation are both related to the extent to which members see their own priorities reflected in WOUGNET's program areas. Members get involved by sharing information, participating in face-to-face and online fora, collaborating in activities, and participating in general planning. All WOUGNET members are profiled on the WOUGNET websites. Access4Dev projects WOUGNET develops and implements initiatives to pilot and/or establish ICT strategies and policies to promote and support improved access to information by women and women organisations. These projects also serve to create awareness on the opportunities and benefits of the strategic use of ICTs for sustainable development. |
