    iWomen Inspiring Women App

    Inspiration for Myanmar Rural Women

  • Eleonora Gatti is the inspiration behind the Innovation award winning iWomen Inspiring Women App. ​Eleonora led the development of iWomen App and the creation of the first National Network of Rural Women for the United Nations Development Programme Myanmar from 2015 to 2017.

     

    iWomen App aims to solve the problem whereby rural women in developing countries are not accessing positive behavioural change content that fosters their social standing and economic empowerment.

     

    iWomen methodology consists of a daily, weekly and monthly rhythm of content as well as commercial style attention-grabbing functions: Human Interest Stories, Hard Facts for Daily Life, Discussion Space and Competitions with Prizes. iWomen App is an app which captures rural women attention by sharing human interest personal stories written by women across the world with the aim of creating ‘’teachable moments’’ in the preoccupied and busy minds of low-income rural women (Be Inspired Function); an app which gives rural women hard knowledge on topics such as entrepreneurship, market, laws, rights, technology (Be Knowledgeable Function); an app which runs competitions with prizes to solidify the hard knowledge in the rural women minds and to be used as a monitoring tool to gauge users’ comprehension (Ready to Play Function); an app which provides a sharing platform where women can discuss in private issues of concern and receive remote mentorship (Talk Together).
