Womenomics: Sheboard helps us reflect on how we talk to and about girls

Sheboard is a mobile keyboard that helps us reflect on how we talk to and about girls. Using predictive text input, it suggests to use more diverse language and words when talking about girls or women.

According to various research we talk differently to children depending on their gender. We talk to boys about their abilities. We talk to girls about their bodies. This influences how they see themselves.

Anna Rydén works as Social Innovation Lead at Samsung Electronics Nordic. She explains how the Sheboard works, and why is it important to involve girls and women in the development of technology.
