Beskrivelse

This book investigates how women in Africa are being impacted by the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which describes the twenty-first-century proliferation of mobile internet, machine learning and artificial intelligence.

The move towards digitalization brings fundamental changes in the way people work, live and generally relate to each other. However, in many areas of Africa, women face digital inclusion challenges, and their lack of access to the internet limits their social, political and economic participation in globalization. This book considers the different policy approaches taken in African countries, and their preparedness for enabling women's participation in the Fourth Industrial Revolution, across a range of sectors.By diiscussing key topics such as artificial intelligence, technological adaptation, drones, entrepreneurship, education and financial inclusion, the book identifies positive policy approaches to ensure equitable progress towards the fourth industrial revolution at all structural levels.

Making a powerful case for the benefits of inclusive digital innovation, this book will be of interest to researchers of women and technology in Africa.
