In addition, offers specially tailored to mothers are provided to address their professional challenges.

These initiatives are an important step to integrate women in the world of work more and to promote their individual development.

could the topics of artificial intelligence (AI) and gender -friendly technology be the next big challenge for women? A series of events organized by the EAF Berlin and the success factor woman will investigate these questions. It illuminates how AI influences everyday life and which social structures are reproduced by these technologies. Central topics will be the influence of AI on women and the potential disadvantage in this area.

gender gap in the ki

Special attention to the gender gap in artificial intelligence is also paid in a central event of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) on March 7 in Berlin. The conference with the topic "Technology of tomorrow, problems of yesterday? What to do about gender gap in artificial intelligence?" will bring experts from science and research together. According to the Global Gender GAP Report 2023, only about 30% of AI talents were women in 2022 and only 12% of experts in AI research worldwide.

The gender GAP in the AI ​​is a significant challenge, since the development is predominantly shaped by male -dominated teams, which can result in research gaps. The aim of the conference is to develop strategies for promoting young women for AI studies and strengthen their participation in the AI ​​area.

With these parallel initiatives, both the "women's strength weeks" in the district of Euskirchen and the upcoming events in Berlin show that the promotion of women in various areas, especially in technology and working world, remains a central social task.
