Economics leading politics: Part 2 'Amazing Women Global Hub'

03 Apr 2018 at 05:46hrs | Views
There is information asymmetry amongst development agencies and the intended beneficiaries. The stakeholders take too much time to connect with each other. Now with the improved internet access, it's now possible to have a more efficient information dissemination platform in the global village.

A platform dedicated to all those outstanding women who can be an inspiration to the girl child to reach greater heights in every sphere of life thus increasing global efficiency. There are a number of programmes, globally, which support women empowerment unfortunately there is no one place where to get information.

This platform will correct this information gap in the global village. It will be great if you can please talk to five people about this initiative, it might help change someone's life. This hub will be further developed into a standalone website and each country will have its own website but they will be linked by a communication protocol. There will be a master website, the Amazing Women Global Hub, which will show continental focus, thus taking the cultural aspects into consideration.

It will show what services women are requesting and those NGOs and other international development agencies can quickly assist them. The services will be shown on a heat map- high illiteracy rate in a particular area should immediately attract educational service providers; high mortality rate in a given area should attract the attention of health services providers. The 'help and empower' development model will be encouraged to reduce dependence.
