About this SIG

SIG Women in ICT aims to support women in improving their technical and leadership skills.

In Kosovo, women continue to be under-represented in ICT study programs and ICT professions as well as in leadership positions in enterprises, in relation to their percentage in the population.

Therefore, the equal representation of women and men in ICT professions and in managerial / decision-making positions is one of the goals of SHPIK.

Networking of young women with experienced leaders, who provide counseling, mentoring and coaching in a supportive and social environment will be an integral part of the mission of SHPIK.
