To mark the occasion Internet Society President & CEO *Kathy Brown*, and Trustees *Desiree Miloshevic*, *Theresa Swinehart* and *Narelle Clark*, have posted Weaving Women of the World into the Global Tapestry of Modern Digital Life<http://www.internetsociety.org/node/191121>an article around the importance of women in ICT. The article highlights several initiatives across the ISOC community that support women interested in technology careers and bring Internet access and training to women around the world. Here at ISOC-NY we actively support local organizations who actively recruit girls into computer science, such as the New York City Foundation for Computer Science Education <http://csnyc.org/> (CSNYC) and Girls Who Code <http://girlswhocode.com/>. We have also lent international assistance to the ITU's Tech Needs Girls <http://www.techneedsgirls.org/> campaign.
