[[Martha Chilongoshi]] is a Zambian journalist and proactive communication for development enthusiast with specific interest in mainstreaming the gender dimensions of ICTs and technology and its impact on the functioning of society. Based on the conviction that ICTs are neutral in their function but require further probing on whether they are implemented and utilized with a gendered perspective, Martha’s work is focused on seeing to it that ICTs and more specifically the internet is utilized and treated equitably between men and women because the environments and communities in which ICTs are being introduced and implemented in across Africa, are still prone to gender imbalances and inequalities that exist offline and later manifest through online users.
