“You have two essential powers – the power within and the power of ICT. Use the power within to develop your attitudes and discipline, your dreams and aspirations, and use the power of ICT to help you realize these dreams. You are living in exciting times and if you invest time and work in developing these two powers you will create magic in your life…” Mrs. Teresa Wankin, Acting Secretary General of CANTO delivered these powerful and impactful words in her address to over 130 young ladies at the Bishop Centenary College in Trinidad & Tobago; April 28th, 2016.
These words set the stage for the International Annual Girls in ICT Day celebrations observed annually on the 4th Thursday in April.
