1 in 5 software developers are women, and in some specialties like machine learning, the gender gap is 1 in 10.
We will try to understand this situation, why this is a problem, and discuss solutions.
For example, if you are a woman, what prevents you from getting an education in IT and machine learning?
If you are a man in IT, what are you doing that excludes women from these jobs?
Specific programs are also emerging for women in IT and ML: are they effective? Do they match women needs ? Like:

wimlds.org
We can also talk about the economic and social aspects of this gender gap in Ukraine, a country where software developers earn up to 60 times the minimal salary.

● Cracking the gender code
● AI is the future — but where are the women?
