- Phase 2: Digital Literacy – prompting testimonies and ideas about the tools, resources, and training that women need to espouse the Internet and truly take advantage of its benefits.
- Phase 3: Digital Empowerment – crowdsourcing the wisdom of grassroots women leaders on how the Internet can support groundbreaking initiatives to generate positive change for communities all over the world.
The first phase, Digital Access, is currently open for submissions! Throughout 2014, World Pulse will post blogs and send information via email to update you as we roll out the upcoming phases of our campaign; stay tuned!
