Women in Science: A Dialogue Across Ages
Gender equality is both an aim and a means to contribute to healthy lives for all, both of which are key to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In science, globally, women account for only about 30% of researchers, according to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), and evidence shows that their participation is even lower at leadership and decision-making levels. Why is that, and what is being done to better support women’s careers in science?
SUSTAINIT, WGH Norway, WiLD Norway and Circle U Oslo welcomes you to a seminar dedicated to the broad and deep experience, expertise, passion, and diversity that exists among women working in science in Norway and globally.
