STEM y comercio internacional en clave de género: los casos de Brasil, Chile y México

Palabras clave:

comercio internacional, brecha de género, empleo, roles de género, STEM, Intensidad tecnológica, Latinoamérica

Resumen

El avance de las carreras STEM (Ciencia, Tecnología, Ingeniería y Matemáticas) en Latinoamérica es clave para el desarrollo tecnológico y la innovación, potenciando la economía y la competitividad a través del comercio, que fomenta la inversión en I+D. Este estudio examina el impacto de las oportunidades económicas del comercio internacional en la brecha de género de los profesionales formados en STEM. Los resultados señalan que las exportaciones de servicios de alto valor añadido favorecen la inclusión laboral de las mujeres. No obstante, la segregación de género sigue siendo un obstáculo significativo para cerrar esta brecha y manifiesta una persistencia de los roles de género.
