[Chapter-delegates] WTDC 2017 - Day 2

[Elizabeth Oluoch]

Dear Chapter-Leaders,

 

Today we are pleased to announce that the Internet Society and Argentina’s National Communications Agency (ENACOM) signed a Memorandum of Understanding to cooperate in supporting community networks in Argentina.

 

This comes as at a timely moment when the Secretary-General of the International Telecommunication Union, Houlin Zhao, emphasized the importance of partnerships in his opening speech.

Send your solutions to close the Internet’s Gender Gap

The latest Internet Society report focused on the future of the Internet Society shows that new digital divides are emerging. One of them is THE gender divide.  Today 250 million fewer women than men use the Internet. If we don’t act now to close this gap, we will lose out on a digital future that includes everyone.

 

If you’re at the WTDC please register now for the side event dedicated to finding solutions to techs gender gap

 

If you’re not here – please share your ideas on social media how you can close the digital gender divide and share this post.
