Addressing the digital skills gap through innovative multi-stakeholder collaborations

The Regional Alliance for the Digitalization of Women in Latin America and the Caribbean, a joint commitment between the Government of Chile, Microsoft, Mastercard, UN Women and Eidos Global, is working to address the digital skills gap through Todas Conectadas, an online platform providing free courses in job training, digital citizenship and technical skills, among others. The aim is to reach 3.8 million women across the region by 2024. To confront women’s systemic social and economic barriers, the platform is free and accessible from all device types and bandwidth levels
