This project examined how informal women workers engaged with digital products and services in their livelihoods beyond corporate labour platforms. Focusing on domestic workers, street vendors, and tailors, the study analysed smartphone access and use, platform-mediated work, and the role of household and institutional mediation. Through qualitative and quantitative research, it assessed how unions, worker associations, and social enterprises supported women’s digital access, agency, and troubleshooting capacities. The project generated insights into the social and institutional conditions shaping women’s participation in the digital economy, informing the design of digital public infrastructure and digital ecosystems for women’s skilling, employability, and economic inclusion.
