The Women’s Technology Empowerment Centre (W.TEC) is a Nigerian nonprofit organisation, which builds the capacities of Nigerian girls and women, to increase their economic power and ability to speak about issues affecting their lives, through information and communication technology (ICT)-based training and projects. This is done through technology literacy training, mentoring, work placement and research.

W.TEC works in partnership with corporate organisations, local and international NGOs, educational and research organisations. W.TEC was set-up in January 2008 and conceived in response to research that showed that although ICTs significantly contribute to a nation’s development and growth, women – who make-up approximately half of Nigeria’s population – are severely lagging behind in their knowledge and use of technology.
