SUMMARY:Including Women and Girls in Computer Science: What are the Challe
 nges and What is Working in Latin America?
DESCRIPTION:Minisymposium\n\nIncluding Women and Girls in Computer Science
 : What are the Challenges and What is Working in Latin America?\n\nAbreu\n
 \n<em>Including women and girls in computer science: what are the challeng
 es and what is working in Latin America?<br /><br /></em>The growing body 
 of work on girls and computing show that the digital skills gender gap is 
 growing despite global efforts to include women and girls. This is true in
  relation to the general use of ICTs, but also in more advanced research a
 reas such as mathematics and computing, where programming is seen very muc
 h as a male domain. The picture, however, is complex. There are large regi
 onal variations and interpreting the gaps requires careful and contextuali
 zed analysis. This paper will discuss some recent experiences in Latin Ame
 rica trying to overcome this gap and show how they focus on issues of acce
 ss, skills and leadership.\n\nDomain: Computer Science and Applied Mathema
 tics, Humanities and Social Sciences
