Abstract

Power relations in the world will remain male-dominated if girls and women do not strongly get involved in technological professions, United Nations Secretary General, Antonio Guterres said Saturday. Speaking at an event to encourage girls to learn coding, Mr. Guterres said concerted efforts should be made to ensure more girls the world over are enrolled in science, technology, engineering and mathematics studies.
