Abstract

According to UNESCO, in the world women rep-resent only 35% of those pursuing higher education studies in STEM. Gender equality is a high-priority goal that seeks to be ad-dressed effectively. To move in this direction, the implementation of strategies and programs aimed at promoting the inclusion of women, especially girls, in STEM fields has been key. This paper combines scoping review and bibliometric analysis to map and analyze the literature on strategies used to motivate women in STEM fields. Throughout this documentary analysis, effective pedagogical strategies, as well as gender equity projects and programs, were examined. Additionally, successful experiences and role models that have positively impacted the motivation and engagement of women in STEM fields be explored. Overall, this study provides a better understanding of the literature on the strategies used to motivate women toward STEM fields.
