Good article Max thanks. This is a really complex problem. We need to be careful of cause and effect as doing one thing will not move us forward. In my view we need to:
– Encourage all those who influence young people to understand the opportunity from tech: teachers; parents; governors; peer group
– Work on the unconscious bias that we have towards girls in tech
– Do something about the misogyny within the industry
– Encourage women in good role models to talk about tech, mentor and coach
– Have greater involvement between industry and schools
– etc
I have written several blogs on the subject myself, my latest is https://guerrillaworking.com/2016/11/10/disrupting-women-into-tech/
