Rikke Frank Jørgensen, affiliated with Ørecomm, has published a 56-page paper on “ICT as a tool for empowerment in Uganda”. Abstract:
The paper presents a case study, which investigates the role of ICT for women empowerment in Uganda. The study concludes that ICT has played a role for improved livelihood and participation in public life; however the facilitation of new spaces for conversation and collaboration has been just as important, as the technology itself.
