Grameenphone has made a pledge to launch a long-term initiative called ‘Internet Er Duniya Shobar’ in alignment with the theme of #digitALL innovation and technology for gender equality denoting the spirit of International Women’s Day (IWD), a press release said Friday. The initiative will focus on accelerating digital inclusion for women through educating them across the nation and enable them to explore the endless possibilities of the internet and the digital sphere. Women from rural and semi-rural regions in 2000 unions shall be invited to attend courtyard conversations where they will be made aware of how Internet can help them uplift their life and unleash possibilities. The sessions will focus on breaking taboos and stereotypes surrounding women using technology by presenting real life examples and connecting them with inspiring women to demonstrate the prospects and necessities of women’s digital inclusion.
