TU Wien

I am a student in TU Wien's Media and Human Centered Computing Master's program. I have been working on Gender Equality in IT since shortly after starting my Bachelor's at TU Wien. Based on my contribution to the H2020 Project GEECCO (Gender Equality in Engineering through Communication and Commitment), which is also the base of my Master's thesis and two publications, I am developing a method and tool kit to enable researchers and practitioners in discovering gender(ed) aspects and dimensions in their work.
