I was reading up a bit tonight before I go to the FAT organisation tomorrow. Few different points were raised in the transcripts that I was going through.
- Actual use of technology as opposed to intended use - can/should this be checked?
- Penetration of internet in India is only 8%, which is very very low especially for a country which basks in the fame of being an IT country. Lot more scope for Indians to conquer the world (so to speak)
- Internet democracy - freedom of speech and choice.
- Policies which are supporting the cause of empowering and educating women.
Few other points, which I did not read there, but was thinking about myself
- Exposure to other kinds of technology, not just internet technology
- Concentrating on need based education, and making women more eligible to get jobs
- Spread confidence, not just the knowledge
- Discussions on subjects like sex, marriage, children, ego, independence, exploitation, torture etc.
I hope I have a more fruitful discussion about these points tomorrow, and can elaborate about them here.
