[European Commission | 2023] When considering all fields of study, women outnumber men in tertiary education (ISCED levels 5-7), and there is almost gender balance among doctoral graduates (ISCED level 8), yet large gender gaps persist across specific fields of study, particularly in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).
[European Commission | 2023] This article aim to give an overview over the topic and answer basic questions about important issues in digital education, about the digital gender divide and how it connects to education.
[UNHCR | 2023] The digital age has brought countless opportunities and benefits for people across the world. However, for more than 50 million forcibly displaced women and girls worldwide,1 these opportunities often remain limited or even out of reach.
[EPRS European Parliamentary Research Service | 2023]Â The gender gap in the digital sector, in areas ranging from education to salaries, persists. Women's increased participation in the sector could help solve the shortage of information and communications technology (ICT) professionals needed for the EU's digital sector to grow.

[CorCOM - McKinsey | 2023] Le donne impiegate nel settore hitech possono portare all’Europa fino a 600 miliardi di euro di Pil aggiuntivo entro il 2027 – ovviamente, se ci sarà un numero significativo di professioniste della tecnologia nella forza lavoro.È quanto stima McKinsey secondo cui, per mettere a segno il risultato, la quota di donne nel settore dovrebbe raddoppiare dall’attuale 22% ad almeno il 45%, pari a 3,9 milioni di addette. Ma la situazione potrebbe addirittura peggiorare: nel 2027 si rischia di scendere al 21% (link al report completo).

[ACM Digital Library - ICEGOV'21 | 2021] With the ever-increasing pace of technology innovation and rapid digital transformation of society, the impact on digital inclusion, and particularly gender equity is surprisingly under-analyzed. The article outlines and classifies the concept of digital inclusion and its effects on traditionally marginalized groups, specifically, girls and women. In doing so, the article reviews existing literature on digital inclusion and answers a core research question: What are some of the underlying monitoring indicators for monitoring and measuring the state of digital inclusion and digital gender divide identified in the academic literature to date?
[Springer Link | 2023] Specifically, we synthesize evidence on gender gaps in digital knowledge and skills, controlling for differences in ICT access and technology attitudes. In addition, we examine the role that technology attitudes play in the gender gap in digital knowledge and skills.
Why so Few? Women in Science, Technology, Engineering, and...
[AAUW Research Reports | 2010]  Women have made tremendous progress in education and the workplace during the past 50 years. Even in historically male fields such as business, law, and medicine, women have made impressive gains. In scientific areas, however, women’s educational gains have been less dramatic, and their progress in the workplace still slower. In an era when women are increasingly prominent in medicine, law, and business, why are so few women becoming scientists and engineers?
[European Commission | 2022] Why women earn less? The gender pay gap measures a broader concept than pay discrimination and comprehends a large number of inequalities women face in access to work, progression and rewards. Differences between the EU countries.
[WID.World | 2022] Economic growth numbers are published every year by governments across the globe, but they do not tell us about how growth is distributed across the population – about who gains and who loses from economic policies. Accessing such data is critical for democracy.
[DevelopmentEx.com | 2022] Latest Findex report, the triennial barometer for progress in financial inclusion among the world’s most underserved people, while there appears to be progress in financial inclusion, we must carefully consider how financial digitization risks excluding women from the global economy and take steps to mitigate.
[Empirica | 2022] This paper evaluates the digital gender divide in its three stages: access, use and results, relating it to gender and salary gaps in the context of the European Union.
[GeekforGeeks | 2023] Gender Pay Gap means the difference in the average income paid to men compared to the average income paid to women in a workplace, which represents that there are unequal economic opportunities on the basis of gender. It is not only about unequal pay for the same job, but it’s about the overall earnings gap between men and women in the workforce. It takes into account various factors, such as differences in average hourly or annual wages, bonuses, and other compensation-related benefits.
[UOC Universitat Oberta de Catalunya | 2022 ] Without equal access to technology and the internet, and with less chance of acquiring digital knowledge, the playing field of our increasingly digitized society is not equal for girls and women. This affects their education and therefore greatly hinders their potential incorporation into the job market as well as the quality of the jobs themselves, an issue which in turn has a negative effect on a country’s potential for economic development and growth.
