Our defining features

CEA Digital Law ® is a non-profit organisation. Our defining features are:

CEA Digital Law ® is a recognised point of reference in the sectors in which we operate, owing to the quality and effectiveness of the programmes we implement, which bring about highly positive social change in the communities where they are carried out and globally.

Empowering women and girls

This does not happen in watertight compartments labelled “offline” and “online”; rather, it requires progress on several fronts simultaneously. Government entities, civil society groups and private sector actors must work together so that ICT initiatives are systematically integrated with broader efforts to expand the choices and capabilities of women and girls in the labour market, the home, school and public life. We will make Women’s STEMLaw a reality.

The 2015 UN Sustainable Development Goals include a significant commitment to using ICTs to promote women’s empowerment, as well as to connecting people in the least developed countries to the internet. Data on the digital gender gap have so far been scarce, and the goals run to 2030; that is why we are firmly committed to contributing to them.

Seeking to highlight and empower women, CEA Digital Law ® offers various types of resources and programmes for that purpose. Information, research and capacity building are the pillars of this initiative, which also includes specific actions to improve women’s employability — and to prepare girls for the future — in the legal sector, related fields and the technology sphere.

In the event of dissolution

If, upon the winding up or dissolution of the entity and after all debts and liabilities have been satisfied, any assets remain, they shall not be distributed among the members but shall be transferred to another charitable body or institution whose main purposes are similar to those of the Committee.
