Do asylum seeking women have access to the Internet?
Yes, and no. One of the very real problems facing asylum seekers and other refugees is that, financially, they are unable to easily access services that others take for granted. The Internet is one of these services. However, in the absence of alternatives, the Internet remains a powerful and effective form of communication and distribution. In terms of reach, it is most effective in delivering information to those who do have access – and from there, information can be distributed peer-to-peer or via RCOs.
