Resumo


Around the world, women have a low representation in STEM careers. This phenomenon is puzzling when there is a labor market that increasingly requires professionals from these disciplines. Factors such as gender stereotypes and lack of information about these careers negatively affect girls' interest and motivation in this field. The objective of this article is to carry out a literature review of the various initiatives carried out to encourage STEM education in girls. Bootcamps, workshops, and serious games are the three types of most common initiatives. Of all these, serious games seem to have represented so far, a more effective strategy.
