dc.description.abstractTwenty-one research projects conducted in fourteen countries are the ground from which this book has emerged over the period 2008–2012. Researchers chose their individual project purposes for strategic reasons in relation to the most prevalent forms of gender inequality in their country. The book provides excellent source material and is divided into three parts that cluster women’s experiences with ICTs: Part one – Agentic ICT use: the aspiration for emancipation versus the power of gender traditions; Part two – Developing critical voice in and through safe ICT-created space; Part three – ICT-enhanced relating and becoming: personal and social transformation.en
