Connected Women Life Stories

Mobile technology is transforming the lives of women across low- and middle-income countries

Hear their stories

We asked women from around the world to share their stories.

Connected Women Programme

Our mission is to reduce the gender gap in mobile internet and mobile money services in low- and middle-income countries and unlock significant commercial and socio-economic opportunities.
