Across Africa, the digital revolution is reshaping economies, industries, and societies. Yet, despite the rapid growth of ICT, women remain significantly underrepresented in the sector. Structural barriers, societal expectations, and workplace biases continue to limit the participation of women in the very field that is driving the continent’s future. Despite the odds, there are trailblazing women across Africa who have defied these odds, risen to the challenge, shattered glass ceilings, and proved that the future of ICT must be inclusive.

Through candid conversations, the webinar will highlight the challenges, triumphs, and impact of their work in a “male-dominated” field. The panelists will offer insights, mentorship, and nuggets of wisdom to young women aspiring to break into and thrive in ICT, demonstrating that inclusion is not just necessary but essential for Africa’s digital future. This webinar is not just about storytelling, it is about building a movement that fosters diversity and equity in ICT, inspiring the next generation of African women to become leaders, innovators, and change-makers in the digital space.
