New Workspace on ICT-based Enterprises for Women in Development A new project is starting to investigate how ICT-based enterprises can improve women's livelihoods in developing countries.
We invite you to join our workspace on this topic and to share your experience, ideas and resources. This will help us build knowledge about the impacts of such enterprises on women, their lives and livelihoods; and about business models and strategies for developing such enterprises. In turn, we will share this back with you. To join us, please click the word "Join" via Web page: http://www.dgroups.org/groups/WomenICTEnterprise Alternatively, send a short message requesting to join to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For your information, we include in "ICT-based enterprises", data entry, programming, Web design, ICT training, ICT consulting, and other activities where ICTs are fundamental to the enterprise. We believe these represent an important and growing path through which to create wealth and skills for women in poor communities. We will be sharing experiences and lessons from ICT-based enterprise projects as we proceed. This project is funded by the UK's Department for International Development and co-ordinated by IDPM, at the University of Manchester, UK. ------------ ***GKD is solely supported by EDC, a Non-Profit Organization*** To post a message, send it to: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To subscribe or unsubscribe, send a message to: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
