About
To gain a deeper understanding of barriers to equality, opportunities to close the gender gap, and the role of technology in transforming women’s lives, we conducted a quantitative survey of adults in nine Asia Pacific countries from March to May 2017.
Using both online and offline methods, the research focused on men’s and women’s perceptions of the gender gap, and values and behavior related to family responsibilities, work-life balance, careers, community, digital literacy, and internet usage.
