Organized by ITU, GIZ and UNODC, Her Cyber Tracks took place for the first time today in Tirana, an important international event that aims to promote the leadership of girls and women in the field of cyber security. This event is designed to train, inspire and mentor women, providing them with the skills and support they need to advance in this important sector.
