CATA WIT Forum would like to extend an invitation to you to participate in one of the Information and Communications Technology Council’s (ICTC) Women in ICT Forums with leaders from industry, education, government and non-governmental organizations. ICTC’s Women in ICT Forums aim to create actions on the recruitment and retention of women in the ICT sector and to discover ways of encouraging more women to pursue educational training in ICT. Your participation will greatly enhance the discussions and strategy moving forward.

With the feedback from these sessions, CATA WIT Forum will partner with ICTC and other organizations in the development of a concrete action plan to attract and retain more women in ICT.
