The widespread adoption of information and communication technologies (ICTs) presents a remarkable opportunity for social and economic agents, leading to significant transformations in social and economic structures and driving the emergence of socioeconomic networks. This comprehensive book contributes to the expanding body of literature and provides a comprehensive understanding of the current state of knowledge regarding the impact of new information and communication technologies on women's economic and social empowerment, ultimately influencing the creation of overall welfare.
In particular, the book focuses on showcasing how ICT can be empowering technologies through their implementation. It aims to offer deep insights into the theoretical and empirical evidence surrounding ICT as a vital driver of women's social and economic development. Special attention is given to examining various broad topics related to the channels through which ICT influences women's development, the role of ICT in enhancing women's active participation in formal labor markets, examples of how ICT promotes education, skills development, institutional development, and other endeavors that contribute to women's social and economic empowerment, as well as case-based evidence highlighting ICT's role in fostering women's equality.
The primary target audience for this book encompasses scholars and academic professionals from diverse disciplines, with a primary focus on those interested in addressing issues related to economic development, social development, the role of technological progress in achieving socioeconomic progress, and related areas.
