International Girls in ICT Day aims to inspire a global movement to increase the representation of girls and women in technology. At Millicom, we recommit to the goal of equal access for young women and girls to opportunities in digital technology.

Our partnership with Plan International to promote the #ConnectedAndSafe campaign raises awareness of the risks and limitations that many girls across LATAM have regarding the Internet and online education.

Millicom (operating in Latin America under the commercial brand TIGO) has been awarded a 2020 Latin American SABRE Award in recognition of Sangre TIGO, the company culture driver, as the top geographic campaign in Central America.

Girls in ICT day is a day championed by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) that aims to highlight the importance of governments' and private sector’s engagement in empowering women and girls through technology.

The COVID-19 global health crisis has impacted our lives, families, and communities, as well as, our lifestyle. The situation has opened the door for a new and prevalent digital way of life in our markets. For some, this is a brand-new concept: working from home, paying bills electronically, utilizing video platforms to connect with others, and more. For us at Millicom, the digital transformation is already a reality.

As we face unprecedented challenges associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, our purpose is more important than ever: “Build Digital Highways that connect people, improve lives and support our communities”
