The project Technology for beginhers aims to demystify the high threshold of female access to technology disciplines, usually considered as “male” domains by creating an informative online resource for women interested in technology. The goals of this project are to 1) create an online resource for women interested in technology, and a community around this resource benefiting from it, and 2) to potentially increase the number of women professionally interested in the field of technology in Serbia.
This project addresses two key target groups: high school girls in the period before choosing their professions-the 4th grade of high school, and a wider community of women that would be generated by the website and by the promotion of the project. By collaboratively developing a website that facilitates the popularitzation of technological knowledge with high-school girls in their sophomore year, we will undergo a set of introduction to technology workshops.
