 <title>Blogs for African Women Project Gets Nigerian Women Hooked on Technology</title>
 <link>http://www.apcwomen.org/news/blogs_african_women_project_gets_nigerian_women_hooked_technology</link>
 <description>&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;APC&lt;/span&gt; Africa Women Member Wins Harambee Prize&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Blogs for African Women (BAWo) has taken hold of the Nigerian blogging spirit to strengthen women&#039;s activism. Oreoluwa Somolu, &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;BAW&lt;/span&gt;o&#039;s founder, sees blogging as a way to get women “hooked on technology”, and gain important skills for community and &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;NGO &lt;/span&gt;leadership at the same time. Networking for Success, &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;BAW&lt;/span&gt;o&#039;s second initiative getting women into the blogosphere, has just been awarded an Harambee Small Grant to increase &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;BAW&lt;/span&gt;o&#039;s collaboration capacity.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Check out Social Source Commons</title>
 <link>http://www.apcwomen.org/blogs/erika/check_out_social_source_commons</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;If you&#039;d like to find tools that fit your needs, especially from the perspective of a gender and &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;ICT &lt;/span&gt;practitioner looking to apply technology strategically in your organisation, Social Source Commons is a good place to check out what other non profit &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;ICT &lt;/span&gt;practitioners are using. Social Source Commons &quot;is a place to share lists of software tools that you already use, gain knowledge and support, and discover new tools. It’s a place to meet people with similar needs and interests and answer the question: what tools do they use?&quot;  And it just won a Net Squared Innovation Award!&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Converting DVD (vob) format to web streaming flash format (swf)</title>
 <link>http://www.apcwomen.org/node/500</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;most dvd files are in .vob format, some i think are already in mp4 &lt;br /&gt;
so if you have a .vob file that you want to stream in web i found the following freeware tools.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;the one i found out is a two step process (i&#039;m sure there is a short-cut... i tried ffmpeg for linux but i had too many old headers that it didn&#039;t work).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;anyways, here are the tools... they are very easy to install&lt;br /&gt;
1. vob to mp4 format - mp4 is also ipod video format&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPod/&quot; title=&quot;http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPod/&quot;&gt;http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPod/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>ICT and job flexibility: a solution for women&#039;s employment?</title>
 <link>http://www.apcwomen.org/node/463</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;A recent conference on Women&#039;s Perspectives in the Labor Market in the Czech Republic touched on a sore nerve: does the job flexibility of &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;ICT&lt;/span&gt;s facilitate women working, or does it enable women&#039;s exploitation?  The panel on Women and IT brought together researchers, representatives from companies, internet and computer trainers, and women information technology (IT) specialists, all with varying views on this debate.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Flexibility&lt;/h3&gt;

 <title>Omolayo Samuel: Climbing above the stereotypes</title>
 <link>http://www.apcwomen.org/node/559</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Omolayo Samuel became a role model for women in &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;ICT &lt;/span&gt;when she became the first woman to climb a communications tower in northern Nigeria, and quite likely even in the whole country, on August 1 of this year.  She is a member of the Fantsuam Foundation&#039;s &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;ICT&lt;/span&gt; Department.&lt;/p&gt;

 <description>&lt;p&gt;Êtes-vous préoccupé par des contenus pornographiques sur internet?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Considérez-vous cela comme dommageable? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ou est-ce une expression légitime de l’imaginaire et le reflet de diverses formes de sexualité?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Avez-vous été nui par du contenu sexuellement explicite  et/ou violent véhiculé par des technologies de l’information et de la communication? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Comment avez-vous traité ceci dans votre propre usage de l’internet, du téléphone cellulaire, etc?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pensez-vous que le gouvernement doit légiférer sur cette question?&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Gender Centred: Women&#039;s Health &amp; ICT Policies from GenderIT.org</title>
 <link>http://www.apcwomen.org/node/465</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;GenderIT.org approaches the problematic issue of women´s health and its interconnection with information and communication technologies (ICTs) policies. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;ICT&lt;/span&gt;s have an enormous strategic potential to locate women at the centre of health initiatives. There are many examples of &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;ICT&lt;/span&gt;s’ transformative potential on gender relations and roles, such as health clinics equipped with information technologies in low-income communities offer women information on available services.&lt;/p&gt;

 <description>&lt;p&gt;The &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;APC WNSP &lt;/span&gt;will hold a panel on Openness at the second round of the &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;IGF, &lt;/span&gt;debating solutions for balancing openness and security|safety concerns in the context of content regulation. In particular, it seeks to enhance engagement of intended beneficiaries &amp;amp; &#039;vulnerable groups&#039; in negotiations concerning what constitutes illegal/harmful content, for whom, who should intervene at what type/level of harmful content and how. Central to this debate is the role of government and recognition that States have a duty to protect the rights of all to freedom of expression &amp;amp; information.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Women in the African Newsroom</title>
 <link>http://www.apcwomen.org/news/women_african_newsroom</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;
Kristin Palitza of &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.agenda.org.za/&quot;&gt;Agenda Magazine&lt;/a&gt; was the chair of a discussion panel on gender and the media today, September 11 2007, in Grahamstown, South Africa. Unlike most of the other panels at Highway Africa, this one lined up three women and no man. A mistake, by some participants’ standards but certainly a colourful and rather critical one in an event where only 15 out of 55 speakers are women.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Challenges of content within the blogosphere in Africa</title>
 <link>http://www.apcwomen.org/news/challenges_content_within_blogosphere_africa</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;The issue of content production and representativeness is important within African news production. In her presentation at the 2007 Digital Citizen Indaba conference in Grahamstown on Sunday, the chairperson of LinuxChix in South Africa, Anna Badimo, highlighted the need for new approaches in African news production. &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;APC&lt;/span&gt; Africa-Women co-coordinator Sylvie Niombo explained that content in the mainstream media ignores lived realities of women. &lt;/p&gt;

 <description>&lt;p&gt;The Gender Evaluation Methodology for internet and &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;ICT&lt;/span&gt;s (GEM) changes the way development projects look at gender, project planning and achievements.

 <title>WENT Africa Training in Digital Storytelling to End Violence Against Women</title>
 <link>http://www.apcwomen.org/news/went_africa_training_digital_storytelling_end_violence_against_women</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;italics&quot;&gt;&quot;I never knew technology could be so useful to transform ones life until after the 5 day workshop on &#039;Digital Story Telling&#039;. Seriously there was more to this than just telling a story.&quot; &lt;/span&gt;- Participant &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;WENT&lt;/span&gt; 2007&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Women came with their stories from Zimbabwe, Congo, Mali, Gambia, Kenya, Uganda, Brazil, and South Africa.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;APC&lt;/span&gt; Africa Women in partnership with Women&#039;sNet hosted this year&#039;s Women&#039;s Electronic Networking Training for women who document - as content developers, librarians, archivists, journalists, mediators, translators, information activists - the lives of women affected by violence in Africa. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Women developed short videos reflecting their experiences as women documenters. The group examined the power dimensions of story telling and how to retain authenticity of voice - one&#039;s own and those of the people whose stories are being documented, preserved or disseminated.&lt;/p&gt;
