Gendered design in STEAM

Abstract

From April 2019 to October 2022, the GDS Program has been investigating and advancing gendered design through 20 grant-awarded projects with scholars at institutions across the global souths. The Program aimed to contribute to more inclusive technological designs in science, technology, engineering, the arts and math by building capacity in gendered design and innovations to address challenges and biased perceptions predominantly faced by women in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The gendered design approach brings diverse and critical perspectives to the design process to reshape how we identify design challenges, the process to address them, the solutions to these challenges, as well as the reach of their benefits.
