for example. what it might sound daunting. almost 30 percent of developers, a self taught by watching tutorials on youtube, for example, a degree and computer science content, but it's no longer a must internationally only $1.00 and $5.00 companies insist upon the college degree. so what's stopping women from guessing involved? entrepreneur and consultants. adieva manual has a few ideas. the 1st reason is the lack of role models. we have very male dominated teams in the tech industry. and as a woman, it's not very attractive to see. i might be the only woman there. so i think it's called decided what is this? the 2nd reason is that we are only just starting to get young women and girls interested in tech. and this prejudiced starts in school, where boys are often presumed to be better in the technical field. and girls aren't supported by the 3rd reason is that we own the employ years,
10:32 am
so i need to offer more flexible working conditions. if we solve this will attract more women to the sector. right. but the guy said, okay, did you ever think that the job isn't suitable for you just because there aren't enough female role models in that position? this is a common theme in the tech industry. we're only 5 percent of all c o a female. to this day, women on encourage to succeed in certain areas, especially at a young age. that was the case pop. i mean, actually order from argentina. her father didn't want her to be involved with computers as a child. it's not something for girls he would say. but she did it anyway, unless you are is where she always wanted to be working in tech, a father and visit her as an accountant for the family business. but h to 9, pamela found some old computer magazines that our fathers kept and began to study them. show this. yeah. ok. they are using to say how wonderful it is to create with these computers,
10:33 am
either separate my child's mind understood. and those assume, but then i would say, i want to do this move up, i see you when. so i always read the magazines and my dad noticed this is what everything he said to me. and so daughter, these magazines are not for you by technology is a man's thing. and then bill and my dad was the one getting orders and everyone had to do it. he said human 3 this. i don't really sad because they have the stream for many years seem of sonya. despite our father's refusal, her mother secretly enrolled her and university. so she could study computer science. the journey was not easy as a few years later to find the business went bankrupt and her father left joe music . gotta let me find me in. yeah, i took responsibility for my family, which was my mother in my sister's here, and then called my 2 brothers who were studying in cordova. and so i had to drop out of college in order to work a bit. i started working in the i t department of the energy company and who, who you and she'll be hopefully for 10 years is pamela worked there until she

10:35 am
i'm with the know seek lynette put on the ginger gap and technology remains significant. but it is gradually narrowing. argentina leads and female participation with more than 40 percent of women in the tech workforce. say that that then do it the we are trying to work with role models. and let me know that i, if i ask you see you as an innovator in technology, and then you might say steve jobs or mark sucker burke, the jobs or media mux, who can bed seemed at the name of her mother. and we always have male role models for the month, but we don't have female role models that come to mind immediately and east. and we must work on that. and this can be like, we need to change this idea that technology is a forbidden world for women. they not a human one, the credit the what was it like for you growing up? i hardly had any female role models, but today, thanks to platforms like link and i think i can easily network with other women and
10:36 am
tech. another way to promote women in the tech industry is my us social networks by women for women in india as a lead thought club is such a network for women only for co fonda rug any tasks. it is particularly important in the country. what conservative generals bills dominate, women just have a very different cardio box. they have a very different uh, point of view. they have a different, a bring in. they have a very different, you know, i think maybe even though vision we need and all those clubs, we need women to support each other. we need the men to back each other up before the 2020 launch of lead club. there were hardly any professional networks for women in india. the release was a huge success. this way women can network online, get further training or take part in mentoring programs. today, why do you need us? has a team of 30 employees, many of whom are women. as someone who has cooled down to the digital platform does
10:37 am
strongly believes that tech can play a big role for women's progress. but she, as it is still majorly a boy's club there seems to be a massive, massive gap killed in the market. like even if i have to go to all effects phone does meet up, i will be unfortunately, one of the very few women in the room. we need to invest a lot more in women and dec. rog, you need believes the app has become the medium to bring women together at a leave dot club event in delhi. hundreds of women who met online are meeting up to network professionally. as an artist, i was looking to connect with a lot of like minded. i think this app has been exceeding you beneficent. in that sense, i have made an oral phone. does a lot of investment banker as an oil saw indeed, or does i was people, you know,
10:38 am
mean somebody walks of life. so it has to be no one to do is we'll start definitely, you know, have, has been a great platform to make them professional networking. i've met some wonderful women and not about race professions, which i've never knew existed. for many women delete club has become an important instrument for finding allies in their professional life. and that's far affect. it's thoughtful, what? $1500.00 women together, the data, networking and support a one thing true a quantity in terms of pay is another. even in 2023 women and the tech sector of still earning an average of 10 percent less than men. the agenda pick up is slowly shrinking. but why women get less money for the same work as men is beyond me. what's attract us about the tech industry is that many jobs can be done remotely. that office flexibility and independence and contrast to many of the sectors. the who's the owner of a small town,
10:39 am
2 hours from luckiest capital rica. not exactly a tech industry hub. who's bar is mostly known for its agriculture, but the optimal internet connection here is stable and fast. not the or ring 16th globally and download speed. excess costs about 17 year rose a month. lever, colleena from barbara has made a career in tech. she works as a data analyst and tough for him. developer, for a european car manufactured lever works from home, 40 hours a week with a monthly pay of around $2900.00 euro is almost double the national average. all she needs for her work is a laptop for her design work. she uses power b, i power automate power pages and kind of the, the, the initial thought was just to have like exercise. so in my mind it was covered time. so it would have a lot of free time. and yeah,
10:40 am
so if nowadays like kids get taught coding so i can probably do it. liza tell me know, learned how to code with re good ted girls and n g o that offers 3 classes. busy busy busy we started off in the community of women intact and focusing mostly on women and girls. in the past couple of years we've grown into community that is supporting inclusion and diversity in tech. it's about diversity. so every thing that we create for it's to be useful and just a good solution for everyone. it needs to be created by people who are, who have a diverse experiences. eva initially wanted to work as a user interface designer. but then she got a job in a different field. as

and teams leads to better results. doctors and women have been under represented in technology for a long time to see if we see it in the development of a i, which is often programmed by men. so there's often a very male view of these technological advances, and if women participate more, the product will be much better in the vast majority of cases because of the different perspectives they bring to the accounts. this reasons to go for a job in tech, especially for women, the opportunities of great, and that's never too late to get stuff is. what are your experiences in the field? do you feel inspired to dive into the tech world? that is not what you think, and we'll see you next time the, the, the,
