As part of the Project, the Family-Friendly Hungary Center organized a project-launching international meeting in Budapest on June 27-28, 2023 as coordinator.

2. Transnational meeting in Prague in November 2023

The partners involved in the project met face-to-face to discuss the lessons learnt from the collection of applications and the further work needed to finalise good practices.

The Business & Professional Women CR. non-profit organisation, the host Czech partner, held a conference on „Education without barriers: bridging the gender gap in IT” on 30 November 2023 in Prague. The event focused on highlighting and developing women's digital literacy and the latest trends in IT. At a time when digital skills are seen as a key to success in professional life and a great help in private life, it is particularly important to motivate women who are disadvantaged in this area to actively use modern technologies. In-person and online participants were encouraged to do so by presenting apps that women have played a key role in developing and promoting. During a round table discussion participating experts discussed the role of apps and online services in economic, social and political development, and how using these technologies can improve the situation of women at work and make their everyday life more efficient.
