The IKNOWHER Initiative is dedicated to empowering young women, particularly those from rural and marginalized communities, to thrive in technology.
By fostering a supportive environment of sisterhood and mentorship, the initiative aims to bridge the digital gender divide, equipping girls with essential digital literacy and ICT skills while promoting socio-economic empowerment and mental well-being.
Through comprehensive training programs, IKNOWHER addresses gender inequality in technology, enabling women to access equal digital opportunities and become self-sustainable. The initiative has successfully impacted over 15 girls in rural and marginalized communities leading them to become thriving entrepreneurs and professionals in various fields.
