Thanks for opening this issue! |
Sir I want to contribute on this project |
Women have faced and undeniably are still facing gender-bias in open-source areas. According to a survey by The Guardian- it was found that the “Women’s acceptance rates dominate over men’s for every programming language in the top 10, to various degrees” but still there's a long way to go as women are still classified as minorities compared to men, and in this way its important to motivate the ones who desire to follow the league. |
I think that there are enough opportunities for girls in tech field. But the thing is that they did't get supportive environment from childhood as for most of the things boys are preferred against girls and due to which they lack confidence and they have not enough information about the opportunities which are available for them. There is very less number of inspiration for women.

As a girl we know that girls really have that desire and potential to acquire anything what comes in. To make them involved in the Open Source, is to make them feel friendly in this environment. We need to make them aware of all the platforms and opportunities available to them to work throughout the world. And instead of giving the womens any special treatment than the mens, they should be provided with the same treatment as the mens, so that they will value the efforts that are needed to become a good Developer. I would suggest (As now we are the future female developers) 2)We should arrange Girls only Codathons/Hackathons. As every girl wants to be more better than other girls, they will brace up themselves, and would give their best in it. 3)Different workshops should be arranged for women, so that they feel friendly while working on Open Source environment. 4)Companies should increase the number of female interns, and make them work hard so that they will become efficient to work more upon developing. 5)Also the number of female mentors should be increased, so as to make upcoming developers feel free to ask their doubts to them. 6)The Developer Companies should bridge the gender pay gap. |
In the modern world, some of the very advanced philosophers have started calling coding skills as a new form of literacy. The world is moving towards an age where machine automation and artificial intelligence is the biggest technology, and will generate the amount of jobs which the history has never witnessed. Talking of literacy, ample attempts have been made by the people in power to provide the girl child with the resources so that she can compete with her counterparts and be a part of the mainstream workforce. Today, the number of girls joining engineering and IT colleges is more than ever. But, just enrolling in a course does not guarantee education. Girls come with their own set of reservations and childhood conditioning, which needs to be catered separately by their seniors and peers, if not the administration. |
