The event is over
A project to support scientific research, political institutions and citizen initiatives in designing a more inclusive digital world.
This project was born out of the realization that issues relating to gender equality and digital transformation are often dealt with without points of contact between them, which significantly limits their scope.

By combining expertise in the fields of equality, digital, SHS and entrepreneurship, the aim is to :
- establish a state of the art on the mutual effects of digital transformation and gender bias ;
- encourage innovative approaches using digital technology to promote gender equality;
- study concrete ways of supporting women's careers in the digital sector;
- propose a guide to best practices in this area.
Several types of activities will be developed to this end (conferences, collaborative working groups, speed-mentoring, video capsules featuring contributions from specialists in the field, etc.) to meet these objectives and raise the social profile of this theme.
