    7 countries, 7 inspiring communities. Women are and have always been the beating heart of Africa’s unlikeliest tech success stories. But while women drive the conversation, Kenyan society still routinely treats the work of women as secondary. And so a group of Kenyan women is working to increase the visibility and influence of women in tech by providing the mentorship and skills that young women need to not only succeed in one of the most competitive tech markets in the developing world but have their contributions recognized as well.

    Vogue India | The Male Gaze: To What Extent Does Indian Cinema Still Objectify Women?

    In India, women have forever appeared in front of the camera, lending their dazzling aura and majestic gravitas to the screen. However, it has taken them some time to cement their position behind the camera with writers' rooms, directors' tables and producers' cliques comprising solely of men. This enabled the gratuitous, hypersexualised depiction of women in cinema – which went unchecked for years thanks to the proliferation of an all-boys' club – leading to the inception of a sexist phenomenon now colloquially referred to as the male gaze. Vogue India investigates to what extent this is impacting women today as it sits down with the women behind some of the Indian film industry's most progressive films like “The Lunchbox”, “Nil Battey Sannata” and “Pagglait”.
