Abstract

ICT is not a brand-new idea. It has existed for some time and has seen some substantial improvements. ICTs quick development in recent decades has boosted women’s advancement. Women now have greater prospects for success thanks to ICT. With so many doors for women now open that were before closed, ICT makes anything possible. Offering them a variety of online education platforms eliminates the gender pay gap, lowers prices, improves access and quality of education, and encourages women’s entrepreneurship, which in turn offers them financial independence and boosts their political engagement. The current paper examines several research papers and articles on how ICT helps empower women in order to highlight the ways in which ICT has helped women progress.
