The Working Group on Enhanced Cooperation of the UN CSTD deliberates upon how to develop required global Internet-related public policies, and the corresponding institutional frameworks. IT for Change is one of the five civil society members of this Working Group.

IT for Change ‘s research and policy advocacy efforts have focused on leveraging the e-government opportunity for gender-transformative change. We have zeroed in on specific recommendations for institutionalising gender perspectives in the development of e-service delivery, ICT-mediated citizen engagement, and connectivity architectures.

Connectivity does not automatically guarantee women’s meaningful inclusion into the benefits of the digital economy and society. Exploring policy and programmatic pathways to build access cultures that promote women’s informational, associational and communicative capabilities has been a longstanding preoccupation of IT for Change’s research and policy advocacy.

IT for Change ‘s research and policy advocacy efforts have focused on identifying the new opportunities and challenges for women’s empowerment and gender equality in the information society context.

IT for Change is engaged in policy research and advocacy that highlights the policy positions that developing countries should adopt in global Internet governance debates, to protect the interests of their citizens in the emerging digital order.
