Nigeria
Why this ICT and Computer Empowerment training for women in
Abuja Nigeria
…Our visit to many IT,
ICT firms and other companies using Computers in Nigeria shows that it is
dominated by men, just few ladies are found in this area of information and communication
technology ICT
Even in the interviews
we conduct for companies, ladies find it
difficult to apply for core IT jobs like website design, Computer programming,
3D modeling and Animation, Graphics etc
In the last recruitment we did, Secretary /Admin officer
position received the highest application totaling 1207 .
Out this number, over 85% were women, while in some core IT
/ICT positions, no woman applied
The above led to the question :-What can be done to attract more girls and women into studying IT
Numerous structural factors can limit whether women use ICTs
and how they use them,
Such as social barriers that mean women may not have the
literacy skills they need,
material barriers that mean they may not have the money to
learn or may not have control over their own or household finances and
sometimes, some families prefer to spend more money on the male child education
than the female child and
psychological barriers that may mean women believe they
should not or are unable to learn digital ICT and computer skills.
It is not just enough to enroll girls and women in education
and training programs; it is equally important that they receive quality
education, in order to ensure appropriate learning outcomes.
The application of ICT in learning enables girls and women
to have equal quality education, which leads to personal development, allowing
them to manage their lives. There is the
need to instill confidence among women so that they can be as good as men in
both using and improving technology.
Bridging the gender gap
The easiest way to solve the technology gender gap is by designing
programmes that target girls
Closing the usage gap between girls and boys is important
for the promotion of the information society. As interactions between
governments and society continue to rely more on information and communication
technologies ICT, it becomes crucial that the voices of women and girls are
represented in the digital world.
