Paula Coto, executive director of CET, participated in the first Council meeting of 2023, the year in which GENU aims to work on reducing the gender gap in STEM disciplines so that more girls develop scientific and technological skills and vocations.<\/p>\n<p>The Advisory Council of Generation Unlimited Argentina is composed of national authorities, United Nations agencies, multilateral funding agencies, leaders of the private sector, academia, civil society organizations and young people with the aim of consolidating a multi-sectoral dialogue. The first meeting was welcomed by Luisa Brumana, representative of UNICEF Argentina, Kevin Frey, Chief Executive Officer of Generation Unlimited and Cora Steinberg, Education Specialist of UNICEF Argentina.<\/p>\n<p>In line with the goal set by GENU for this year, and as part of UNICEF's gender and STEM agenda, Girls in Technology also participated in a meeting with the One Generation global team in which the main axes to improve teaching-learning processes in secondary education were addressed. Based on CET's experience in the comprehensive training in technology of young people who identify with the female gender, the executive director of the organization shared reference practices and strategies to address gender barriers in education. One of the key purposes of the partnership with GENU is to enable adolescent girls to acquire and develop skills and knowledge that will be useful for their labor market insertion, such as digital and technological competencies.<\/p>\n<p>Chicas en Tecnolog\u00eda works with regional and international alliances to transform the technological ecosystem and generate inclusive and diverse spaces in which young women can follow their own paths in STEM disciplines.
