Abstract

RODRIGUEZ GUSTA, Ana Laura. Interference in the connection: ICTs in equal opportunity plans  and digital agendas of Latin America. Rev. iberoam. cienc. tecnol. soc. [online]. 2014, vol.9, n.25, pp.11-32. ISSN 1850-0013.

This paper aims to present a broad overview of the relationships between the Equal Opportunity Plans as an expression of the State’s commitment to gender equality and the ways in which the introduction, appropriation and impact of the new information and communication technologies (ICTs) are seen as issues to be addressed in such plans. Despite the enormous relevance of ICTs in the transformation of our society, there remains a long road ahead in terms of technology policies that incorporate a gender perspective. For instance, digital agendas -even those guided by the premise of social inclusion- still have to address issues concerning gender inequality

Keywords : Gender and technology; New information and communication technologies; Digital agendas; Public policy and technology.
