Closing the Gender Gap in GenAI Skills
5 strategies to drive inclusive AI learning
Based on data from millions of Coursera learners, our latest research finds that women make up just 32% of GenAI course enrollments.
This gender gap mirrors global STEM participation, where women account for only 29% of STEM workers, per the World Economic Forum (2023). When women aren’t involved in designing and training GenAI models, existing social biases can become hard-coded into AI systems and amplified at scale, risking the perpetuation of harmful stereotypes.
This playbook explores the latest research on GenAI learning barriers and provides a strategic framework government leaders, educators, and business leaders can implement to foster greater inclusivity in GenAI learning.
