Hi Mariana. What is Laboratoria?
Mariana: Hello! Laboratoria is my organization. We offer training in technology
for women.
Interviewer: That’s awesome!
Mariana: Yes! Women can study technology, and this can give them an
opportunity to get a good job. They can work in banks, hospitals, and
other industries.

Mariana: Yes. It is important to create opportunities for women so they can work
in technology. Technology is transforming the future. Many women
can’t pay for a university program. In Laboratoria, women can learn
to be a software developer in only six months. If you want to promote
diversity, you can create opportunities for everyone.
Interviewer: Mariana, you are amazing!
