dc.descriptionThe above consultation, held in Hyderabad, India from 16 to19 December 2002, was designed to address issues relating to two of the most critical components of the digital divide, namely rural communities and women, and to explore with partners the processes, designs and models that can generate positive impacts in harnessing information and communication technologies (ICTs). While there are a number of studies documenting the disparity between rural and urban locations in access to ICTs, far few er studies are available on the gender specific impact of ICTs, especially on women living in rural areas. This report presents an overview of the stakeholders deliberations and recommendations regarding ICTs and rural women, and distance education and rural women, with particular reference to those who have been marginalized in the previous phases of technological revolutions, namely rural communities, illiterate rural women and populations living in resource poor environments and isolate d areas.
