Abstract

Girls Who Code: Encouraging Girls towards STEM Careers Though women may enter the STEM workforce with great anticipation, they often encounter what has been termed the “chilly climate” and eventually drop out (the “leaky pipeline”). Girls Who Code – While enrolment in computing science and engineering degrees has largely evened out among men and women, the professional participation of women in the technology sphere continues to lag behind. Perhaps the best-known “intervention” is Girls Who Code (GWC), a non-profit initiative who declare themselves “the world’s largest pipeline of future female engineers” (Girls Who Code, 2021).
