Between 2018 and 2021, SERVIR HKH trained 410 women in “Empowering women in GIT” to bridge the technology and gender gap in the region. Some of the key outcomes of these trainings are summarized in this report.
Since 2018, SERVIR has conducted 12 training programs for young and early-career women in geospatial information technology (GIT), reaching 1,490 women across the region. The training focuses on using technologies to collect, store, analyze, and visualize spatial or geographic data about observing the Earth’s surface and human activity. Participants learn about key concepts and how to use applications that depend on EO data and GIT.
