ABSTRACT
The digital age has revolutionized communication, enabling instant global connectivity. Through the internet, improved communication and online platforms, people can connect with each other across distances, fostering collaboration, networking, and the exchange of ideas on an unprecedented scale. The research aims to shed light on the power dynamics that shape gender disparities and unequal outcomes within these platforms. It explores how gender biases and discrimination manifest in various aspects such as income, access to opportunities, and decision-making processes. Women in the digital age are navigating a complex landscape that presents both opportunities and challenges. Empowering women in the digital era requires concerted efforts to address barriers, promote digital literacy, ensure online safety, and foster inclusivity. By recognizing and addressing the unique experiences of women, particularly through an intersectional lens, society can unlock the full potential of women's participation, leadership, and innovation in the digital age.
