Gender Gap in Industrial Designs of Central European and Baltic States dataset

2025

This report examines women's participation in industrial design across Central European and Baltic States (CEBS). Over the past three decades, the number of women designers in the region has increased. Nevertheless, they remain underrepresented, particularly in machinery and arms manufacturing, while being more active in clothing, pharmaceuticals, and health-related design. Our projections estimate full equality could take up to 40 years, making gender parity in industrial design a long-term goal. Addressing industry-specific barriers will be crucial to fostering a more inclusive and innovative design sector in the CEBS region.
