28 November 2023, Chorsada village, Tajikistan. Portrait of Guljahon Gaurova (R), the proud mother of 21-year-old Kibriyo Roziqovato (L). She is interviewed in Tajik and shares how she and their community feel about Kibriyo being a role model for other girls and women. Kibriyo Riziqova is a 4th-year law student at Dangara State University Law Faculty, who attended the first IT Training held in September 2023.
The UNDP Project “Supporting Women’s Legal Education (SWLE)” organized a two-day training on basic digital skills at the Law Faculty of Dangara State University—21 female first-year law students were invited to participate. It is the second out of three IT trainings scheduled for 2023.
During the two-day training, the students learn Microsoft Office, i.e. to create their CV; the internet and various search engines; create a Gmail account; how to use websites such as Youtube to learn new skills; how to save and archive their documents, photos, and scanned documents; PowerPoint Presentation; Zoom and Skype for online meetings; and how to handle misinformation, cyberbullying, and staying safe online.
The digital skills training for female law students at the Dangara State University was launched at the start of the academic year in September 2023 and is one of the project’s various activities. The IT training contributes to narrowing the digital gender gap by equipping female university students in Dangara with essential digital knowledge and skills, empowering them to be competitive candidates in the justice sector job market. Most female law students have never used a laptop, hence lack basic IT skills, and are attending this type of training for the first time—the IT training organized by the project to promote the digitalization of government services and the justice sector. The initiative highlights the need to address the digital divide among law students, particularly female students in Khatlon. This pressing issue was discovered during recent Project work. The training is designed to develop digital skills and will contribute to narrowing the digital gap and empowering law faculty students in Dangara. These new competencies will be useful during their university studies, prepare them for their professional careers, and increase their competitiveness when applying for positions in the justice sector.
