The Intel® She Will Connect Training at MFM TMPM Gwarinpa On Friday 21 August 2015
We believe that when girls and women are connected to the world through technology, they are connected to a world of opportunity. Technology and the Internet in particular, has transformed the lives of billions of people. It functions as a gateway to ideas, resources, and opportunities that never could have been realized before. All around the world, the Internet is helping people to imagine new possibilities. But girls and women are being left behind.[i]
Collaborating to Close the Gap In direct response to the findings of the Women and the Web report, Intel and its partners developed the Intel® She Will Connect program to reduce the Internet gender gap around the world, through an innovative combination of digital literacy training, an online peer network, and gender-relevant content. Intel® Easy Steps is a course designed to help learn the basic steps of how to use a computer effectively, and to apply computer skills to every-day life.
Youthhubafrica, delivering on its partnership with Junior Achievement Nigeria has been delivering in the on-going ICT training for women and girls. The MFM TMPM ICT Training for women and girls was held on August 21, 2015 in Gwarimpa Abuja. The training include introduction to computer, Email and Internet and Microsoft office packages.
