Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: In today’s era of rapid technological evolution, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and digital technologies offer transformative opportunities to address entrenched societal inequalities and gendered practices. Gendered practices and the perpetuation of ignorance in gendered consequences are interconnected phenomenally and contribute to the persistence of systemic inequalities and gender injustices. Addressing gendered practices and challenging embodiments of ignorance through AI and digital technologies involves promoting gender equality, upholding human correct principles, dismantling discriminatory norms and stereotypes, and pursuing gender justice and substantive equality. Nepal, with its diverse cultural dynamics and historical gender disparities, stands at a pivotal moment to utilise digital tools to advance public awareness and legal literacy in women’s rights. This paper examines how AI and digital tools can be harnessed to advance gender liberation in Nepal by bridging knowledge gaps, empowering women, and promoting social transformation. It further delves into the intersections of technology, legal frameworks, and gender advocacy, offering actionable strategies while addressing the implementation challenges in Nepal’s diverse socio-political context.
