A great body of literature evidences
the low representation of women in
technology-related fields. However, few
research lines have analyzed the role
played by women in the field of research
on ICTs. The main aim of this paper is
to explore the participation and posit
ion of women in a group of public and
private institutions doing research in the
field of ICTs in Spain. After mapping
all the private and public institutions doing
research in field of
ICTs in Spain,
we carried out an analysis of the presen
ce and position of women in the field of
ICTs research in those institutions.
Our findings show, on the one hand, a
scarce representation of women in the research
areas specialized in the field of
ICTs. On the other hand, we have also
observed that few women hold posts of
responsibility in the research area of IC
Ts and have the required qualifications
to promote professionally in those rese
arch areas. We discuss all our findings
and the possible implications of our study.
