Equal access to digital tools empowers all with Information and Communication, Technology (ICT) skills—crucial in today’s data-driven fields like economics. Promoting this helps bridge gender gaps in STEM. Equal skills mean equal opportunities.

Vor 20 Jahren galt #Gender Economics als Nischenfach der #VWL. Am DIW Berlin ist sie heute nicht wegzudenken. Die Leiterin der Forschungsgruppe Katharina Wrohlich erzählt von ihrer Arbeit und mit welchen Vorurteilen sie als Frau in der #Forschung zu kämpfen hatte.

Happy International Women’s Day!
Today, we celebrate our amazing volunteers and those we’ve worked with. 🧡
This year’s theme, #AccelerateAction, calls us to push progress forward. At the current rate, full gender parity won’t be reached until 2158—five generations from now. We can’t wait that long!

Am 08.03. ist #Weltfrauentag. Für die Gleichberechtigung von Frauen ist viel erreicht worden. Aber es besteht noch Handlungsbedarf, z.B. beim #GenderPayGap oder #GenderCareGap, wie Arbeiten meiner Kollegin Katharina Wrohlich zeigen. Aber auch beim Thema #GewaltGegenFrauen! Dazu das neue DIWaktuell 👇
2023 gab es in Deutschland insgesamt 938 weibliche Opfer von „versuchten“ (578) und „vollendeten“ (360) Tötungsdelikten. DIW-Abteilungsleiterin Kriminalität, Arbeitsmarkt und Ungleichheit Anna Bindler zeichnet in ihrer Studie ein aktuelles Bild der häuslichen Gewalt: www.diw.de/de/diw_01.c....

Nur wenige Frauen in den Vorständen von Dax-Unternehmen sind Mütter. Dabei vermitteln Medien häufig ein anderes Bild. Die Fokussierung auf Vereinbarkeitsthemen schadet vielen Frauen mehr, als es ihnen nutzt.

1) Mehr Frauen in Führungspositionen, aber noch ein weiter Weg zur Geschlechterparität
2) Stereotype in Medienberichterstattung über Top-ManagerInnen z.B. zum Thema Familie

📣‼️New working paper:
Men's bottom earnings in Germany have fallen since 2001, while women's have risen. Why? Fewer hours for men, more for women.
Yet, net income tells a different story. Poverty persists, but the welfare state softens the blow.
Check it out here: docs.iza.org/dp17567.pdf

I have built a web scraping tool to automate the data collection of the yearly DIW women executive barometer and created a panel from previous waves. This data on women's representation on company boards in Germany has been published today.
