ICT For Women

Information communication and Technology (ICT) is very important tools of development. ICT disseminates the message to one another and it can create an informed society. ICT can play a vital role to change social infrastructure. Since Nepali society is dominated by male, women have less access and influence to basic needs including ICT. Women's numerical position is much higher than male but social position is very low. Socially women are highly deprived therefore we should change our social structure through ICT. In rural areas mostly female are engaged in agriculture and only household activities. They have very little access to information and education. Only 25% female are literate in Nepal. ICT can give real message which is happening here and there but female are isolated from those means of communication. In rural area illiteracy rate is much than urban area. ICT is the means of social changes but these means can't be used by the rural people as they cannot get easy access and opportunity.
