In fact, this same report reveals that women themselves consider that\u00a0<strong>gender continues to be a barrier to accessing more senior positions<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">For all these reasons, administrations and technology companies will play a fundamental role in the implementation of programmes that guide young women to study mathematics, technology, engineering or science.\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/girlsinlab.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Girls in Lab<\/a>\u00a0Or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/spain.girlsintech.org\/#https:\/\/spain.girlsintech.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Girls In Tech Spain<\/a>, for example, some very interesting projects (the first of which is 100% home-grown) have arisen with the aim of inspiring the\u00a0<strong>first generation of techy girls<\/strong>.
