Isi artikel

The paper presented global data relating to the under-representation of women in the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) profession – whether at entry level or managerial level. It then surveyed various literatures in an effort to explore the reasons behind such under-representation. Using a life cycle perspective and guided by the social exclusion concept, it reported on the impediments women have in accessing/using ICT devices and services; selecting their fields of study at the secondary, vocational and tertiary levels; and working in ICT companies with cultures often described as macho and anti-women. It then cited recommendations for a reversal of the phenomenon, including the inclusion of gender issues in national ICT policies.
