Women in European New Media and IT
Topics included:
- Is new media outgrowing its adolescence? (Is the Internet outgrowing its laddish, macho phase and moving towards a new maturity?)
- Do women want their gender to be irrelevant? (Would women rather be promoted on merit, or is there some value in identifying glass – or bamboo – ceilings?)
- Why don’t more women want to work in IT? (And why is the problem worse in the UK than in other European countries?)
- Are female information architects more focused on end users than men? (Or is this unhelpful ‘women-as-gentler-sex’ propaganda?)
