摘要本文报道了一项欧洲研究，旨在通过包容来缩小性别数字鸿沟。作者认为，包容不仅仅是排斥的镜像，要实现包容，仅仅遏制排斥机制是不够的，还需要加强积极的包容措施。研究人员研究了各种包容性策略，得出的结论是“一种尺寸并不适合所有人”。因此，为了达到广泛的受众，需要结合许多不同的战略。然而，更多的妇女用户不足以增加妇女对信息和通信技术发展的影响。需要采取特别措施，征聘更多妇女从事信息和通信技术专业，并遏制该专业的边缘化。
Abstract This article reports from a European study on efforts to close a gendered digital divide through inclusion. The authors argue that inclusion is not just a mirror image of exclusion, and that to achieve inclusion, it is not sufficient to curb exclusion mechanisms but to enhance positive measures of inclusion. A variety of inclusion strategies have been studied, the authors concluding that ‘one size does not fit all’. Therefore, to reach a wide audience, a combination of many different strategies is needed. More women users are not sufficient to increase women’s influence on ICT development, however. Particular measures are needed to recruit more women into the ICT profession and to curb marginalization within the profession.
