 We're here at the ITU Plenipotentiary Conference 2014 in Busan in the Republic of Korea and I'm very pleased to be joined by Minister Jean-Field Baer-Senghi Mana, who is the Minister for Youth and ICT for Rwanda. Minister, thank you very much indeed for being with us today. Thank you. I'd like to start off by talking about the new GemTech Awards that are being launched here at the ITU Plenipotentiary. It's promoting gender equality in mainstreaming and I wanted to find out about Rwanda's participation in this. You're a gold partner in this. Why did you decide to get involved? Rwanda deeply believes and actively promotes the role of women and technology in development. We think that a well-functioning society and sustainable economy needs to harness these two important components. As far as women are concerned in development, you will know that, for instance, Rwanda promotes political empowerment of women because everything else depends on that. And our parliament has the highest number of women, which is 65 percent of the whole parliament are women. And when it comes to technology, we also believe that, and it's part of our vision for development, our vision 2020, transformation that needs to happen, not only in Rwanda, but across developing countries, need to harness technology. This is why, for instance, our president is coming to make a statement at this Plenipotentiary meeting, but also this why we decided to be a gold sponsor of this award, because the GemTech Awards bring together these two powerful concepts, and Rwanda finds it very much in line with our development strategy. So what is your vision for gender equality mainstreaming in Rwanda? Women and girls constitute more than 50 percent of our population, and it is almost a self-saving interest to get them empowered and playing an active role in our society. But it's also an issue of rights, which need to be upheld. It's been part of our strategy from the recovery of the effects of the 1994 genocide in Rwanda to a point where Rwanda has been the fastest growing economy in Africa. Are you concerned that the information revolution might leave women behind, as in the industrial revolution? And what actions do you think can be taken to ensure that that doesn't happen? I would be concerned if nothing is done, if women are not getting educated, if discriminations and education gaps that have been traditionally in place continue to perpetuate. And I think actions need to be taken first and foremost at the very early childhood education, when women need to have equal access to education as their counterparts, when technology needs to be mainstreamed and embedded in education. And as you will know, for instance, Rwanda is one of the countries that have embraced the one-laptop-a-child philosophy. And we believe that this is going to actually level the ground for both men and women. And if those actions continue to be taken systematically and are part of everyone's strategy, there is no reason to be concerned. But the truth and the reality across the world is that statistics show that there is still a growing gap between men and women when it comes to accessing and harnessing ICT for their social and economic well-being. So Rwanda's participation in this award is at the same time a call for action for everyone in the global community to understand that it is extremely important and urgent to make sure that these tools for productivity, for economic growth, for prosperity, these technology tools are in the hands of women and men. Some great words. Many thanks indeed, Mr. Sengiman, for being with us today. And we wish you the very best with your plans and your vision for the future in Rwanda. Thank you so much. Thank you.
