Gjurgja Knezevikj, a publicist, made a statement on the challenges that women in Croatia face regarding the equal access to ICT. According to her, there are two important things that need to be considered when it comes to the women in Croatia and the use of ICT. First, it is the political will of the government representatives for real and not just declarative gender equality, and the second thing is the mass education within the society on ICT. Jordanka Petrusevska, a web-administrator and a trainer and Ivana Dragsikj, new media artist took part in the debate.
