Call for nominations: 2024 EQUALS in Tech Awards

The EQUALS Global Partnership invites nominations for the 2024 EQUALS in Tech Awards. We want to hear about initiatives, projects, movements, organizations and institutions around the world working to bridge the digital gender divide.

Every year, EQUALS invites nominations from committed and creative initiatives aiming to give women and girls equal access to the internet, the necessary digital skills, and career opportunities in the tech sector.
