It is the story of a paradox: that of a sector of activity lacking labor and of an entire population wishing to join it, but which finds itself almost prohibited from entering. Or on one side the very tech world of digital companies and on the other side senior women from all walks of life who would like to make their place there. Why does it get stuck and how does it get unblocked? 3rd episode.
This podcast in 5 episodes – offered by L’ADN, Social Builder and the Grande École du Numérique – tracks down the clichés and gives a voice to those who have entered this strange game, or are preparing to do so.
Working for a less unequal vision of the world would, for example, ensure that women are not eternally a minority in the digital sector. And that they manage to stay there while benefiting from an inclusive climate. Not easy because here we get into the nitty-gritty of discrimination and gender bias that structure mentalities and even society as a whole.
In this episode, we learn that the disappearance of women from the IT sector dates back to the 1990s, when Tech became a predominant industry and therefore a place of power. Surprise, we also discover the existence of Grace Hopper, an American computer scientist who, in 1969, invented the Cobol language which made it possible to automate information systems, particularly in administrations. Proof that developments are not linear, contrary to what Chat GPT says.
In short, nothing a priori prevents a woman from flourishing in the digital world other than the clichés, if not the fact that many of them have stopped working for a while to take care of their children and find yourself out of the game.
