Play's space at Brazilian Computer Society events: a necessity or not?
Abstract
One of the rights sought by the countless initiatives for gender equality is that of responsible parenthood. In this context, among the demands of parents who work in scientific research there is the need to take part in conferences. This article presents data from a survey carried out by the Digital Girls Program (Programa Meninas Digitais) on the need to offer a childcare service that can accommodate the children of parents who are attending scientific conferences organized and supported by the Brazilian Computer Society.
