From my experience, the ex Eastern Bloc countries. I am speaking about all the STEM fields, not just SWE. I remember that my mom (Romanian) was shocked when I told her that in my CS high school class (in Italy) we were all boys.

That's interesting. I'm half Polish and I know that there is a perspective that women do really well in science/STEM, but I don't think I've seen them participate at equal rates as men. And when I talk to tech companies in Poland these days, they say their engineering teams are predominantly male and they'd like to change that (which is one reason they want to partner with Manara!)

EDITED: Also, when I worked at Upwork as a PM, most of our software engineers were from Eastern Europe (Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, etc) and we had almost no women on the team.
