Merging Gender, Society, and Technology: The STEM Paradigm

CTSi//circle.gender is a comprehensive examination of the intersections between gender, societal structures, and technology within the STEM (mathematics, computer science, science, and technology) disciplines. It takes its cue from scholars:ing such as Wajcman (2010) and Faulkner (2001), who have focused extensively on the relationship between gender and technology.

Through an interdisciplinary lens, this circle contributes to ongoing conversations about gender, society, and technology. It offers valuable insights for educators, policymakers, researchers, and technology designers working to advance gender equity within STEM fields and beyond.

    As the visibility of non-binary people increases, gender bias in language becomes apparent. As part of the project, a participatory workshop was organised in which translation guidelines for non-binary language use were developed. It became clear that there is no universal gender-appropriate strategy for language and machine translation. Although technical standardisation is necessary, it is at odds with the required diversity. The results of the project were used for further intensive research.
