Women Aloud VideoBlogging for Empowerment
I find this an inspiring example of how video blogging, and a digital platform which brings the video blogs together, can be used to amplify the voices of young semi-urban Indian women who talk about their perspectives on issues that matter to them.
From their site, I read that 'WAVE’s philosophy is that young women in India need to be heard and encouraged to analyze the problems in their communities and go on to become leaders who provide effective solutions in order for society to become socially and economically empowered.'
Check out the platform and some of the videos for inspiration on how ICTs can be used to give voice to women or gender issues!
