● Effect in families (mothers AND fathers) - identification of “activity for my daughter” when
labelled as “Girl-”
● The world is already extremely labelled (explicitly or implicitly) with activities for boys / girls
Informal feedback:
● “I am surprised that teachers were beautiful” (7-year girl)
● “Where can I find more activities for girls and technology?” - mother
12. Girl-only events
Needed, but with limitations:
● Extra resources needed. Only sustainable if an explicit commitment is done
● They tried, they liked… what’s next for them?
17. Gender-balanced events
Needed, but with limitations:
● Need to make the message explicit and impact beyond the
specific course
● What about all those girls (and boys) who are not interested in
technology (but are influencers)

21. Actions for girls AND boys
● Unconscious bias
● Stereotype threat
● Imagine an engineer
