Lennart, You should look at the Education Program, which after the first year appeared to have a strong impact (i.e. more participation from women than men).
It's also been my experience (anecdotal but strong) that the Writing Wikipedia Articles course I teach has attracted and retained more women than men. (This would not impact the general numbers in a signiificant way, but might offer insights into what kinds of activity *would* impact the numbers.)
