In Cote d'Ivoire, a young blogger is gaining attention for being among the top 50 influencers in the country. Her social actions through digital technologies have earned her a spot as one of the most important figures in Cote d'Ivoire's digital sphere.

EDITH YAH BROU BLOGGER, CEO OF AFRICA CONTENT GROUP "I have always been passionate about science fiction and everything that stems from it, such as movies, technology, futuristic sciences, robots and many others. While studying economics, I started working with my sister who was in audio-visual production. And as I was working with her, I discovered the Internet. Then I discovered blogs. And that's how it all started in 2005 and 2006."

Edith Brou's simple, fast and fun platform has attracted many subscribers.

She is one of Cote d'Ivoire's digital pioneers.

In 2011, she co-founded the first women's webzine, after which she became president of the Bloggers' Association of Cote d'Ivoire.

Her social networks boast a community of more than 50,000 people.

Through her notoriety, Edith also founded a start-up, producing her own projects.

EDITH YAH BROU BLOGGER, CEO OF AFRICA CONTENT GROUP "My company is an agency that manages social networks including Facebook, twitter, instagram, Linkedin and many others, for companies. We also provide public relations management for our clients. We do brand content or personal branding."

Edith has won several awards, including the 2018 ICT Women's Digital Entrepreneurship Special Award.

As a Web activist, she and her partners aim to promote the emancipation of women through digital technology.

ASTRID ATSAIN SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGER, AFRICA CONTENT GROUP "This is really not the time for us women to stand back. We have role models, we have examples, this is the occasion for us to seize this opportunity. Because no one will come to hold our hands and lead us to development and empowerment. There are already women who are doing well. We may not necessarily work with them, but we can be inspired by what they do. And today Edith is one of them. Many do not work with her, but she is a model from which one can learn to become an influential woman in the future as well."

EDITH YAH BROU BLOGGER, CEO OF AFRICA CONTENT GROUP "Digital technology has a major impact on women's empowerment, it is a multiplying factor. Women now have the opportunity through a tool such as the telephone and internet to train and learn new skills from the comfort of their homes and even try new recipes."

Through her foundation, she hopes to support and train young women in the field of ICTs. CGTN.
