⇓ More from ICTworksTraditional economic development programs targeting women in the Global South rarely move beyond offering alternative livelihood opportunities.
And now, as India surges digitally ahead, women without digital access and skills face growing exclusion.
From Livelihood to EntrepreneurshipRecently in Gowalhati, Assam, I met Hiramoni Das, a SoochnaPreneur Business Mitra (SBM) and a business enabler for small and medium enterprises.
These SBMs are local business enablers and digital facilitators, helping women build sustainable businesses from the ground up.
Together, they tell a powerful story of how a digitally savvy business enabler can help bridge the digital divide by helping women network, connect, and succeed, even in the most remote corners.
