Abstract

The study aims to identify the extent of rural farm women's use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) and explore the relationship between ICT use, empowerment, and nutrition knowledge. A total of 184 women were interviewed out of 3005 farm families from three unions of Kalapara upazila under Patuakhali district of Bangladesh using a structured interview schedule. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares (PLS)-based Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). This study discovered that the increase in respondents' ICT skills and level of ICT use is positively related to respondents' empowerment. Such empowerment is associated with an increase in their nutrition knowledge as well. This study guides how to promote more ICT-based solutions for rural households.

通过赋权增强妇女的营养知识:信息通信技术的作用

摘要

该研究旨在确定农村妇女使用信息和通信技术 (ICT) 的程度,并探讨 ICT 使用、赋权和营养知识之间的关系。使用结构化的访谈时间表,对来自孟加拉国 Patuakhali 地区的三个 Kalapara upazila 工会的 3005 个农场家庭中的 184 名妇女进行了访谈。使用基于偏最小二乘法 (PLS) 的结构方程建模 (SEM) 分析数据。本研究发现,受访者的 ICT 技能和 ICT 使用水平的提高与受访者的赋权呈正相关。这种赋权也与他们营养知识的增加有关。本研究指导如何为农村家庭推广更多基于 ICT 的解决方案。
