The Women Economic Forum estimates it will take 140 years to close the gender gap with the current trends, but what about the Digital Gender Gap?
On the 24 May 2022 the ETF Community of Innovative Educators has organised a webinar to present some digital tools and teaching ideas that have one thing in common: the potential of lowering down the digital gender gap. The webinar, which gathered more than 70 participants, counted with presentations from successful cases of digital tools and approaches to encourage women’s acquisition and use of digital tech and IT skills and will allow time for discussions on what strategies seem to work better for reducing the digital gender divide through digital education.
Agenda:
