The YouTube video "IBGE: women occupy only 20% of tech jobs in Brazil" highlights the underrepresentation of women in the tech industry in Brazil, with only 20% of over 580,000 tech jobs held by women, according to data from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE). The video inspires high school students to consider careers in computer science. One woman, Aline, shares her story of discovering her passion for computer programming during her magisterium studies and going on to earn a degree in data processing and start her own business. However, she notes that having qualifications and passion are not always enough to secure business deals. The video also mentions that only one in every four people working in tech in Brazil is a woman. Researchers suggest that the lack of incentives for these professions may be the reason, as girls are dropping out of computer science courses. In response, three professors from the University of Brasília started computer programming classes for girls in a public school in the Federal District. These girls have gained technical skills and learned about tech careers, with some recognizing the importance of having a feminine touch in inventions and the need for diversity in the industry.
