Paper Abstract:
|
Women participation in computer science and related areas in Brazil is fewer than men, considering quantitative
researches on both labor market and academic space. Brazilian Society of Computing supports an initiative to discuss the
disparities in this issue in Brazil: Women in Information Technology - WIT. We analyze 81 short papers published on
10th, 11th, and 12tth editions of the event to highlight information on interests, practices, and origins of these papers. We
base our analysis on Science, Technology, and Society (STS) and Feminist studies and we point out to plural and
inclusive computing that open participation of all people in all spheres of society considering the social, cultural and
historical aspects of society in the 21st century. |
