We celebrate the remarkable contributions of women and girls in science who remain a minority among the world’s researchers. Women and girls are underrepresented across many STEM fields globally.
It is essential to bridge the gender gap not only on fairness grounds but on relevance, impact and quality of work demonstrated by women and girls in science and related fields
In building an all-inclusive STEM ecosystem, let’s provide a platform for advocacy, education, action and measurable impact in the area of artificial intelligence, health research, scientific entrepreneurship and cybersecurity.
Science and technology offer unique opportunities to improve the lives of people, right from better healthcare to sustainability. One major challenge is the underrepresentation of women in these fields.
Together, we can break the long-standing gender stereotypes and male-dominated workplace cultures. Every woman or girl deserves equal access to scientific participation to promote STEM and related fields.
Highlighting a day like in evidence-based research in AI, health, cybersecurity and scientific entrepreneurship makes women’s presence in STEM normal, expected, and celebrated. Together we can achieve the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development through investing, nurturing and supporting women and girls in transformative STEM and related fields.
