Short description of the event:

As part of the Rosadigitale (PinkDigital) week and All Digital week, this event aims to promote the 2019 Digital Girls Summer Camp (http://www.ragazzedigitali.it/).
Both male and female students are invited to attend, as all should be aware of the opportunities offered by digital technologies for their future employment prospects.
But girls, in particular, should not miss out on this chance, due to old stereotypes which ultimately have a negative impact on the whole society.
With professor Michele Colajanni (UNIMORE University of Modena and Reggio Emilia) the event will host some women testimonials will illustrate how and why it is important to get involved in STEM studies and digital technologies.
Among them:
GIOVANNA MANCA Integration Process and Launch Operations Engineer for ELV (AVIO Group and ASI Company),
SONIA MONTEGIOVE Software Developer,
EMMA PIETRAFESA Researcher in #OSH field and Author ,
LARA OLIVETI and MARCELLA ALBIERO (http://www.melazeta.com/chi-siamo/) Co-owner and founder of Melazeta digital agency.

For the sixth time in Modena, this year’s Digital Girls Summer Camp will run also in Reggio Emilia from June 17th to July12th, with a few novelties which will be explained by the camp’s tutors from UNIMORE. The Summer Camp is for girls in their 3rd and 4th year of high school. Attendance is free and it is a really engaging and fun experience.
