If you happen to be in New York City and have a couple of hours to spare, come on by to this panel today from 12-2 at UNICEF’s Danny Kaye Center. I’ll be doing an overview of some research that Keshet Bachan and I worked on late last year for UNICEF.
There will be some fantastic examples from Tostan, Equal Access, New School and UNICEF on creative ways that new technologies can be used when working directly with marginalized adolescent girls. We’ll also discuss how ICTs and communication for development (C4D) can be used in broader outreach aimed at changing mindsets and behaviors to look more favorably on girls and their capacities and improve their access to new technologies.
Update: Here’s an article and short video about the panel.
Wait... What?

Hi Linda Do you have copies of the presentations or discussion summaries from the 2 March event which you can share? Even a couple of key conclusions would be great. We are working on developing projects on this theme right now at War Child. Thanks!
Hi Kate, we are waiting to hear from UNICEF who hosted the panel if there will be a video copy or other kind of information. If so, I’ll post the link. I wasn’t able to take notes because I was speaking. The paper will be made public at some point, but it’s not being circulated yet….
