In Africa and in developing countries, ICTs are widely recognised as powerful tools for the socioeconomic transformation of women. ‘They facilitate informed decision-taking and communication among women and other dispersed networks and mobilise them to participate in [public debates] […]’ (Macueve, Mandlate, Ginger, Gaster, and Macome, 2009, 21). ICTs have also tackled infrastructural barriers in resource-poor contexts in Africa (Nyamnjoh and Brudvig, 2016).
