Résumé
The objective of this work is to give some information to reflect on the following question: "What keeps girls away from science and technology?". We will mainly talk about those stereotypes that lead many young women to think that they will not be able to prosper in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics, for its acronym in English). The lack of female role models in science and technology decisively reaffirms these biases, often unconscious, that in a subtle way are tracing different academic and work paths for girls and boys. Being aware of what mistakes we make – as a society and individually – can help to correct an injustice that lasts too long: that of holding many women back from their possible aspirations in STEM disciplines.
