Audiopedia Foundation

As we approach the close of 2023, we at Audiopedia Foundation want to share a highlight that truly defined our year. It's a moment that encapsulates our journey, mission, and the impact we strive to make every day. 🎥 We're excited to share the video of Felicitas Heyne's presentation at the UN on SDG Digital Day. This presentation wasn't just a speech; it was a milestone for us. Felicitas eloquently conveyed our vision, our achievements, and our aspirations, resonating with global leaders and change-makers. 👩🎓 This presentation marked a pivotal point for Audiopedia. It was here that our efforts in empowering over 500 million illiterate rural women through accessible audio content were recognized on an international stage. It validated our approach, bolstered our mission, and opened new doors for collaboration and impact. As we look back, we're filled with gratitude and motivation. This moment wasn't just about Audiopedia; it was about every woman we aim to empower, every community we hope to reach, and every life we aspire to transform. As 2023 winds down, we invite you to watch this defining presentation and join us in our journey towards a more equitable world. Let's carry this momentum into 2024 and beyond! #AudiopediaFoundation #Empowerment #GenderEquality #UNSDG #YearInReview #DefiningMoment

🌍 Today, on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, EQUALS - The Global Partnership for Gender Equality in the Digital Age stands together to address technology-facilitated gender-based violence (TFGBV). 🔶 In 22 countries, 58% of young women and girls aged 15-25 have experienced online harassment (Goulds, 2020). 🔶85 per cent of women globally who spend time online have witnessed TFGBV against other women (The Economist Intelligence Unit, 2021). 🔶Concerns about safety and security are a key barrier preventing women in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) from adopting mobile internet, and the main barrier to continued use (GSMA, 2024). At #EQUALS, the Access Coalition (of which Audiopedia Foundation is a member) is committed to bridging the digital gender divide by promoting safe, inclusive and empowering online environments for all women and girls. Today, let's reaffirm our commitment to ending violence against women in all its forms - both offline and online. Join us in raising awareness and advocating for a safer digital future for women everywhere! #OrangeTheWorld #EndViolenceAgainstWomen #DigitalInclusion #EQUALS

🌟 Only 4% of international aid is dedicated to programs with gender equality as the primary focus. This eye-opening statistic highlights the critical need to align global funding priorities with meaningful action. At Audiopedia Foundation, we see every day how empowering women and girls transforms lives and communities. Our grassroots-driven approach—bringing accessible, audio-based education to marginalized communities—shows that impactful solutions exist. But they need more support. Let’s work together to bridge the gap and ensure that international aid delivers on its promise of gender equality. 👉 Read more and share your thoughts in the original post below! #GenderEquality #Audiopedia #SocialImpact #GlobalDevelopment

🎉 Audiopedia is turning 8! 🎉 Eight years ago, we embarked on a mission to empower women in underserved communities through accessible, life-changing audio knowledge. What started as a bold idea without a blueprint has grown into a recognized solution for global challenges. Last year, Audiopedia was honored by the United Nations as a groundbreaking digital innovation for SDG5 (Gender Equality) through their SDG Digital Acceleration Agenda. This recognition affirmed what we’ve always believed: doing things differently can create extraordinary impact. Today, we’re driving innovation with initiatives like Audiopedia Access Points and AI-driven content creation, enabling us to scale culturally relevant knowledge directly to the communities that need it most.
