Input to the Second High Level Committee on Status of Women in India

In April 2014, IT for Change submitted a solicited input to the Second High Level Committee on Status of Women in India, analysing key policy and programmatic concerns in the area of 'Digital Technologies and Gender Justice in India'. The brief demonstrates the urgent need  for  a gendered analysis of the National e-governance Plan and e-governance schemes under implementation, to overcome the limitations of current 'gender-neutral', 'corporatist', e-governance approaches. It also lays out future directions for policy and programming, in order to further the women's rights agenda in the information society context.
