 This year marks the 11th anniversary of Girls in ICT Day. We are celebrating this year under the same access and safety to focus on the challenges girls and young women might face in the digital environment and possible solutions to these challenges. It is imperative that girls who have patience in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics stem, and information and communication technologies, ICT, can safely explore the digital world. Equipping girls and young women with the necessary skills and tools and fully explore the benefits of today's digital economy empowers them to become drivers of innovation and transformation. We must do everything we can to change the fact that women and girls are underrepresented in STEM professions, the ICT sector, and technology leadership roles. On this Girls in ICT Day, I urge stakeholders and partners of this worldwide movement to promote online safety this and every year, and to collaborate and create solutions that enable girls and young women and their communities to overcome barriers to access. I encourage girls and young women to follow your dreams and ambitions to pursue studies and careers in the tech sector. Your fresh and creative minds, your self-confidence, your talents along with cutting-edge technologies have the potential to change the world and shape a better future for all. On this 28th April 2022, I wish you all a wonderful international girls in ICT Day.
