In recognition of the Gender and
ICT initiatives all over the globe, we have created this projects
database and made it available online. The database is a repository
of Gender and ICT projects which were nominated and had qualified
for the GICT Awards 2003 screening. This will be enriched by each
award year. We are hoping that these efforts will inspire others
to network, advocate and mobilize ICTs for women's empowerment and
gender equality.
