TechHerNG TechHerNG is a community of women interested in Technology in Nigeria and beyond.

As technology becomes an increasingly essential part of every aspect of human existence, from education to employment, politics to creativity, the ability to access, navigate, and shape technology is critical to women’s participation in all sectors of society. TechHerNG aims to create a community for women/ ladies in technology: Bloggers, Programmers, Developers and Social media practitioners in Nigeria who will support each other, collaborate on social or community projects, and serve as ready mentors for new entrants to technology.

We have all heard the excitement around AI.

Faster work. Smarter tools. New possibilities.

But with every new tool, there is a learning curve: figuring out what it is actually good for, where we need to be careful, and how much of our judgement we are willing to hand over.

That is the conversation behind this video.

Not AI as some general, futuristic idea. AI as something already sitting in our phones, workplaces, classrooms, and everyday decisions.

Over to you. Are you curious about AI, cautious about it, excited by it, or all three? Tell us in the comments where you stand.

This initiative is conducted under the Al for CSOs Programme, implemented by CJID’s (CJIDAfrica) Al Community of Practice through the Nigeria Al Collective.(Nigeria AI Collective)

The African Feminist Forum has come and gone, but the questions and lessons came home with us.

Members of our Young Feminist Solidarity community from Ghana, Senegal and Nigeria joined feminists from across the continent at the African Feminist Forum to think, challenge, connect and imagine what our movement needs next.

As they share what stayed with them and what they are carrying into their work, watch, listen and tell us in the comments: what question should young African feminists be asking right now?

Thank you to everyone who held space with us. The work continues.

Back-to-school season has a way of turning our timelines into family albums.

And honestly, we get it. The first-day excitement, the fresh uniform, the proud-parent moment. These are memories worth keeping.

But before you post, pause.

A school uniform, school sign, name tag, bus stop or even a caption can reveal more than you intended: where a child goes, when they are there, how to identify them, or how to reach them.

The photo may look harmless. The information around it may not be.

This school season, keep the memories and leave out the details that could put children at risk.

Before you hit “post”, check what your post reveals.
Save this. Share it with a parent.

What does making innovations count for the last mile actually mean?

It means asking a harder question than “Who can access this innovation?”

At this year’s Gender & Inclusion Summit 2026, hosted by the Policy Innovation Centre(), our Executive Director, Chioma Agwuegbo () , challenged us to think beyond access and towards what meaningful inclusion really looks like for women and marginalised communities.

Because a woman can be online and still be unsafe.
She can have the skills and still not benefit economically.
She can be invited into the room and still have no power to influence what happens there.

And sometimes, the harm doesn’t stop at exclusion. Technology can create new ways for people to be harassed, exposed, manipulated or silenced.

So meaningful inclusion cannot stop at getting people online or putting them in the room.

It means asking: Can they use technology safely? Can they benefit from it? Can they influence the systems around them? And when harm happens, is there somewhere they can turn?

For us at TechHer, this is what meaningful inclusion demands: not simply awareness, but action. Not just participation, but power. Not just access, but safety, dignity and support.

The last mile of innovation should also be where the value is felt, its risks are addressed, and people have the power to shape what comes next.

The best way to understand a forum is to hear from someone who was in the room.

Meet Dorcas Anaja, a member of the Young Feminist Solidarity & Climate community, who’s giving us the post-AFF download.

New ideas? ✔️
Different perspectives? ✔️
Conversations that made her rethink feminist organising? Very much ✔️

But what exactly stuck with her? That’s where it gets interesting.

Swipe through to read what AFF 2026 left her thinking about, and maybe you’ll find a thought worth taking with you too.

Grateful to the Ford Foundation for supporting spaces that make these exchanges possible.

The internet is not a vacuum. What starts online can end in real-world harm.

Yusuf’s recent comments about using dating apps to lure q***r people for harm are not just a shocking Big Brother moment. They point to a much bigger reality we have been documenting for years: digital platforms can be weaponised to turn vulnerability into real-world harm.

At the BBC World Service Trust is Earned Forum in Lagos, our Executive Director, Chioma Agwuegbo () , spoke about exactly this intersection: how perpetrators exploit digital platforms, the vulnerabilities created by systems like the Same S*x Marriage Prevention Act (SSMPA), and the very real violence that can follow an online interaction.

Our Toxic Tech Report found that 84 q***r women respondents (61.3%) reported kitoing affecting themselves or someone they knew, making it the second most frequently reported form of TFGBV in the q***r-women survey.

The problem is not simply that harmful people are online; it is that our digital systems are still failing people when that harm happens.

We need survivor-centred reporting and remedy systems that actually work. We need accountability from platforms. And we need to take seriously the ways online abuse can move from a screen into the real world.

Watch Chioma’s remarks and read the Toxic Tech Report via the link in bio to understand what the evidence tells us about kitoing, digital abuse, platform accountability and the real-world harm experienced by structurally marginalised communities.

Same internet. Different consequences.

Do women and girls experience digital abuse differently from men?

At the BBC World Service Trust is Earned Forum in Lagos, TechHer Executive Director Chioma Agwuegbo () unpacked why the answer is yes.

In Nigeria, the façade of conservatism can make digital abuse far more consequential for women and girls. The same exposure, harassment or intimate content that might be dismissed as “online drama” when it happens to a man can threaten a woman’s reputation, relationships, livelihood, safety and even her place in her community.

Men experience digital violence too, including tactics like catfishing. But women are targeted through a wider range of gendered harms, from sexualised harassment and non-consensual intimate imagery to sextortion, outing and increasingly, AI-enabled abuse.

And as technology becomes more powerful, so does the potential for old forms of gender-based violence to become faster, cheaper and harder to contain.

Digital abuse is not gender-neutral. Neither are its consequences.

If you have experienced technology-facilitated abuse, or witnessed it happening to someone else, Kuram gives you a place to report and document it. Visit kuramng.org to report.
