”’They are just not there!”
”Male, female, black, white, I don’t care as long as they are good.”
”In the end, it’s about quality.”
Why are women, especially of color, still underrepresented in technical jobs? Towards International Women’s Day, we discuss the challenges and myths about (the lack of) women in tech.
During the event, we will shed light on the Dutch government’s new plan, ‘Green and digital jobs’: how can women be part of the solution?
There will be a live connection to the Dutch delegation attending the United Nations ‘Commission on the Status of Women’ in New York.
What concrete steps can the government, NGOs and companies take towards gender equality and equal representation in tech?
