Materializing Fairness

Women continue to be underrepresented in tech and design, resulting in their needs and perspectives being frequently overlooked. Addressing this gender gap requires substantial efforts across both academia and industry. While discussions around gender theories and the challenges of tackling tech and design from stereotypical viewpoints have increased, the focus often remains on the negative aspects.

This book closes that gap by showcasing successful initiatives and projects across various sectors - ranging from academia to industry, and from product design to engineering. It also examines how educational, social, economic, and ecological factors interplay in striving not merely for equality but for genuine fairness.
