Adopted

546 in favour · 35 against · 100 abstained. 681 members voted.

What it asks for, in the Parliament's words

• Emphasises the need to include gender-responsive STEM learning and career opportunities in national development plans and policies for the education sector, ICT and science
• Considers the under‑representation of women in charge of investment decisions at venture capital firms to constitute a major source of the persistent funding gap for women-driven start-ups and enterprises

Quoted from A9-0163/2021, which says more than these lines. Each is a whole paragraph; this site does not rewrite them.
