This project focuses on digital inclusion for women who do not have the knowledge, nor access, to make proper use of technology, as it is a very powerful tool to improve their quality of life, personal life and professional life, The technology gives them opportunities to achieve life goals that were proposed throughout their life, and haven't had the chance to achieve them.. In this way we provide equal opportunities and improve the society in which they live.
It is notable that women have less opportunities for personal development in the professional sphere because of the values embodied in the Mexican society, which impacts women to dedicate themselves to the home and not to the professional sector. In addition, women face a lack of resources in the educative sector. In Mexico, less than 20 percent of women have access to some form of technological device.
By having instructors, experts in technology, and the required material, such as computers, internet, and the course material we will be able to teach them in a correct way what the digital world is, including digital literacy, knowledge in all that is computing, social networks, security on internet, and the management of all programs.
There will be a greater number of women correctly induced to what the digital world is, which will have an impact on their social an personal life, since they will now have a proper education in technology. They will be able to create a business of their own, which will lead to a more solid economy and enable them to give a better life to their family, specially to their kids, who, in consequence will have access to better studies, clothing, food, etc.
