Abstract: Women and older women in particular have been for long victims of exclusion from science and technology. Throughout history many cultures have been hostile to the participation of women in the study and development of these two areas of human knowledge. A project, “Technology in the Heritage of Memory” forming part of a multi-regional European Project co-funded by the European Social Fund, sought to determine specific ICT needs for older women, and through the process of learning how to use specific ICT tools, these women shared their life histories. Through such a process the recovery of historical memory was experienced.
