Abstract
ABSTRACT In recent years, developed countries have systematically exported different technological innovations to Africa. These have a direct impact on the daily lives of women and their perception of education. This research project attempted to determine how African women who were exposed to different technological innovations perceive the impact of education and technologies on their social roles, their daily use of time, and what personal benefits they gain from it. For this purpose, nine groups of women in Senegal who had participated directly or indirectly in literacy programs supported by technologies were convened in focus groups. A content analysis of the material thus gathered illustrates the recent evolution of feminist thought in rural Senegal and identifies the barriers that still must be overcome.
