#HappeningNow, tweet-chat: "Harnessing the Internet to Speak Truth to Power."
I shall be posing qns in thread below which each of my panelists shall take on in the replies. I may also prompt clarifications. Audience can contribute to the conversation using, #WomenOnlineVoices

Inviting my panelists now: @KPatu_, @_tracyrubondo and @KanyomozRabwoni. Let& #39;s get right into it:

1. What are the ways in which Ugandan women on the internet, including yourself, are speaking truth to power?

#WomenOnlineVoices

2. Now, critics of online activism like to say that the work here doesn& #39;t yield much. Are there any indicators for you that the power holders are listening? If so, what are those?

#WomenOnlineVoices

Qn3. Speaking truth to power for anyone, but especially for women, is a daunting task. What propels you all to do it regardless?

#WomenOnlineVoices

Qn4. Repercussions. What examples of pushback have you received from the status quo for speaking truth to power?

#WomenOnlineVoices

Qn5. Any victories registered, support and solidarity perhaps? @KPatu_, @_tracyrubondo @KanyomozRabwoni

Qn6. Is women& #39;s freedom of expression guaranteed on the internet? If not, what can be done, policy-wise?

And finally, Qn7. We know that the work is as exhausting (physically, mentally and emotionally) as it is, imperative. What are some of the ways in which you decompress/cope - (call it self-care)? @KPatu_, @_tracyrubondo @KanyomozRabwoni
