The transformation of the digital economy into an opportunity for women goes through complexities related to political, economic, social, cultural, customary, and family issues. As a consequence, the vulnerable groups of women are closer to acquiring the skills needed to access jobs but, on the other hand, these are unstable and shallow digital jobs that do not guarantee their exit from employment exclusion. In this article, data collected by the program "WOMEN4IT-20" are presented, followed by a discussion on delving into the prospects and plans of the program for the immediate future. The article concludes that women have equal access to the digital economy, as the digital age belongs to women equally.
