In this project, we have worked on enhancing gender balance and diversity specifically through reaching out to younger generations and attracting them to Computer Science. We have produced an Action Deliverable, highlighting the advantages of working in CS. In addition, we have created an online library of role model interviews on TikTok and YouTube.
