Women in the Global South are excluded from digital access & a majority of those who manage to have access to the internet and digital spaces are subjected to digital harm. How can the regulatory authority talk about data protection and cyber security without women at the table?

[MACRA @MACRAMALAWI]

The World Bank has pledged support for MACRA’s data protection and cybersecurity initiatives through technical assistance and capacity building.

Team Leader Tim Kelly said this comes as MACRA moves to make the Data Protection Authority (DPA) and MwCERT independent.

Women and girls have a duty to ensure that when it comes to issues of pay and gender parity, there is a collective voice calling for equal pay in Malawi. #equalpayforequalwork #equalpayday

A quote from our audience: women's work is less valued than men's work. Do you agree?

[Young Feminists Network @YFN265]

From the discussants, it is clear that women are paid less. This is especially the case where you are a young woman. This wage disparity extends to house staff, where a male domestic worker is usually paid more than their female counterparts.

Our facilitator has put a question to the room. As a woman, have you ever suspected and/or confirmed that you were paid less for the same job a male member of staff is performing?
