Roberta Metsola (PPE)
Women’s participation in the fields of science, technology, engineering and maths has been in decline since the 1980s, which will result in a potential shortage of up to 900 000 ICT professionals in Europe by 2020.
To this end, what is the Commission planning to do to increase women’s participation in the fields of science, technology, engineering and maths?
