International Women's Day, celebrated on March 8th every year, is a day to recognize the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women and to call for gender equality. This year, the theme for IWD 2023 is "DigitALL: Innovation and Technology for Gender Equality".
Commitment to Technological Innovation
As a technology-focused organization, Audiopedia Foundation is fully committed to using innovation and technology to empower women and promote gender equality. Our mission is to harness technology to create a more equitable world, paving the way for a brighter future for women everywhere.
Open Source for Equality (OSEQ) Initiative
One of the key ways we contribute is through our Open Source for Equality (OSEQ) initiative. This project empowers female developers in the Global South to build open source solutions based on Audiopedia. By providing these women with the tools and resources they need to succeed, we help create a more gender-equal technology industry and ensure that women have a voice in shaping the future of tech.
Focusing on Accessibility
We believe that technology should be accessible to everyone, regardless of gender or ability. That’s why we work hard to design solutions that are user-friendly and inclusive, ensuring our platforms can be used by people with a range of abilities and disabilities. This commitment supports our goal of delivering accessible knowledge to all.
Promoting Diversity and Inclusion
Beyond our technological initiatives, Audiopedia Foundation is dedicated to promoting diversity and inclusion within the tech industry. We believe that a diverse workforce is key to creating innovative and effective solutions. By ensuring that women and other underrepresented groups have equal opportunities to succeed, we foster a more inclusive and equitable tech community.
Celebrating International Women's Day
International Women's Day is an important occasion for us to reflect on our mission and celebrate our progress toward women’s empowerment and gender equality. We are committed to using our technology and expertise to empower women and create a better future for all.
