Internews believes that access to information is a root solution that enables people to make informed decisions, participate in dialogue, stand up for their rights, influence public policy and social norms, and hold governments and other institutions to account. Internews works to enable everyone to participate meaningfully and freely in society to achieve their full potential, and that requires an inclusive and intersectional gender lens. Across the world, women, girls, and gender and sexual minorities are disproportionately affected by information inequality as audiences, content producers, and leaders in the media and information sector. These inequalities preclude societies from achieving gender equality and individuals from achieving their full potential.
