ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The authors wish to thank the many organizations and individuals without whom this research would not have come to fruition. The staff of IREX’s Beyond Access program first noted the negative impact of the gender gap on women’s and girls’ access to information and training at public libraries throughout Myanmar. Field researchers Swathi Balasubramian and Amber Ehrke provided countless helpful insights into research design, resources and early drafts. IREX internal reviewers Sarah Bever, Ari Katz, Stephanie Lake and Samhir Vasdev ensured the analysis was well grounded in the global context of ICT4D and international education. External reviewers Rick Nuccio, Matt Baker and Charles Cadwell shared thoughtful questions that clarified the research lines of inquiry at helpful moments. In Myanmar, the Myanmar Book and Preservation Fund has been a steady companion on the journey towards digital inclusion. We are deeply grateful for the many participants of focus group discussions and key informants who shared their experience with technology and insights on the digital divide today. And a special thanks are extended to Cho Chan Myei Oo for her keen understanding and excellent interpretation skills.
