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.
