Abstract

This report details the theoretical and programmatic outcomes from projects that were part of Gender and Citizenship in the Information Society (CITIGEN), along with IT for Change, as the principal coordinator of the programme. The CITIGEN programme explores opportunities and challenges that have emerged in the current network society context for women's citizenship in the global South. Additionally, it has created a South-South network of feminist scholar-activists and practitioners who are working at the intersections of ICTs and women's rights. In addition to six research projects, IT for Change commissioned think-pieces from prominent scholars.
