Showcase your
work at the
2016 Africa
Summit on
Women and
Girls in
Technology,
taking place
September
13-14th in
Accra, Ghana.
The summit is
a great
opportunity to
join leading
African women
in technology
and ICT policy
to
debate solutions
and contribute
to the policy
processes that
will bridge
the digital
gender gap in
Africa.
We are looking
to feature
women-led initiatives that
address at
least one of
the summit’s
focus areas: affordable
broadband,
women's rights
online,
digital
education and
skills,
and digital
entrepreneurship. You may propose a presentation in the format
of a lightning
talk, demo, or
poster.
