Abstract
The gender ratio in computer science is already very unbalanced; we gathered statistics about the gender of contestants and leaders to show that the female participation at the IOI is even lower. We look at existing programs trying to increase gender balance at a national level and offer
some suggestions, including (re)-introducing mixed gender requirements for complete teams.
