Description of the event
|
The Girls in ICT Day initiative promotes the participation and empowerment of girls and young women in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), helping reduce the gender gap by encouraging early interest in STEM disciplines.As part of this effort, the Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú (PUCP) creates spaces where secondary school students can engage with accomplished female professionals who serve as role models in the technology sector, fostering a more inclusive ICT ecosystem.In celebration of the International Girls in ICT Day, PUCP presents a program aligned with “IA para el desarrollo: mujeres impulsando el futuro digital” (AI for Development: Girls shaping the digital future). The event includes inspirational keynote sessions led by women in technology, guided visits to specialized laboratories, and an introductory Artificial Intelligence workshop with hands-on activities.Through this experience, participants gain exposure to academic environments, emerging technologies, and professional pathways, strengthening their motivation to pursue future careers in STEM fields.
