	Hello and welcome to GenderIT.org. While we aren't a big site or organisation, we work virtually and rarely meet face to face, so it can be a little difficult to orient your way round the site. This guide is designed to help you understand a bit about who we are and what we do, through some reading suggestions and links that will help you learn a bit more about the work we do.

	GenderIT.org is a programme under the Women's Rights Programme (WRP) of the Association for Progressive Communications (APC). It started as a site monitoring policy developments on ICT and gender, and from its beginnings it has been unique. Initially it was one of the first sites looking at ICT policy developments through a gender lens. More sites and individuals are now doing this, reflecting both the growth of the internet and the growing awareness of online misogyny. However, GenderIT.org remains a unique space for its focus on the global South, its focus on those working at a grassroots level (grounded in the experience of the women in the society in which they live), and its emphasis on both advocacy and social justice.

	A Feminist Talk blog post is where you get to be yourself – use more informal language, express opinions, and challenge your readers. Feminist Talk pieces are usually quite short, ''no more than 500 words'', but be warned! They are very lightly edited, if at all. If you want a Feminist Talk piece to be spell- and grammar-checked, you need to ask the editorial team.
