Empowering Female Photographers in Northern Nigeria: Bridging the Digital Skills Gap.

Closing the Gender Gap in Photography and Digital Skills for Women in Northern Nigeria

Photography is a dynamic and globally recognized skill, transcending gender boundaries. However, in Northern Nigeria, there remains a noticeable gap in female participation, particularly in the field of photography. Digital skills are essential in today’s world, but unfortunately, women in the region are often left behind when it comes to mastering these valuable skills.

When we talk about digital skills, it’s not just limited to programming, cybersecurity, or cryptocurrency trading. Photography, too, is a highly relevant and growing field within the digital space. It’s crucial for women, especially in Northern Nigeria, to embrace this skill not just for personal development but also for professional and religious reasons.

Why Female Photographers Matter
Imagine attending 7 to 10 events and noticing that the majority of attendees are women, yet almost all the photographers covering the events are men. This is an unfortunate reality in many cases. It raises the question: why are women not more involved in this field? Photography isn’t a skill reserved for men; women have every reason and ability to engage in it.

Engausa Global Tech Hub are actively working to break these barriers and close the gender gap in digital literacy, including photography. Under their programs, women are taught not just photography but other digital skills such as video content creation, graphic design, digital marketing, blogging, and web development. These are highly versatile skills that women can utilize, even from the comfort of their homes, whether they are married or managing other responsibilities. With just a laptop and a camera or even a smartphone women can practice and master these skills.

Photography as a Versatile Career Path
For women interested in photography, the opportunities are endless. It’s not just about wedding or event photography. You can explore different specializations such as commercial photography, scientific photography, photojournalism, freelance photography, photo editing, or even micro photography. These fields allow women to carve out a niche for themselves in the world of digital media, without the constraints of location or rigid working hours.

At Engausa Global Tech Hub, women can enroll in courses designed to equip them with the skills necessary for today’s digital landscape. Registration is now open, and these programs offer a fantastic opportunity for women to step into the world of photography and digital creativity.
