Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) have emerged out as a powerful tool for social engagement. It play a vital role in shaping social movements, raising awareness, and ultimately giving citizens a voice-setting ground for activism and citizen journalism. Several issues are being discussed worldwide through many types of mobile applications; blogs, social networking websites, accessed using mobile phones worldwide. The issues taken up are cause-related fundraising, lobbying, volunteering, and community building, with an aim to generate people's movements and collective actions disseminating relevant messages across the masses. A worldwide prevalent issue, violence faced by women in various forms, especially in Asian countries, has a profound effect on a woman's life, affecting their participation in different walks of life including workforce, society and political participation; retarding their status in their native society. The article highlights the interaction of youth in Delhi and National Capital Region (NCR) with ICTs, especially internet and its applications in e-campaigning on Violence Against Women (VAW) assessed through an online questionnaire. The study findings infer that ICTs are effective agents in galvanizing different forms of online and offline actions concentrating on eliminating VAW worldwide. - Reproduced. |
