The scientific community celebrated International Day of Women and Girls in Science on February 11. Initiated in 2015 by the United Nations,
What do Henrietta Leavitt, Rosalind Franklin and Marie Curie have in common?
As you can imagine, they are three immense women scientists, precursors in their time, and who had to -in addition- face many prejudices to be recognized as scientists by the society of the time.
Gender equality is one of UNESCO's priorities, and the support of young girls, their training and their full ability to express their ideas are considered as levers for development and peace.
The great challenges of sustainable development also require us to attract a maximum of talent among the new generations. This is why it is imperative to increase the number of women active in scientific fields. Diversity in research broadens the pool of talented researchers, bringing new perspectives, talent and creativity.
The International Day of Women and Girls in Science will therefore be celebrated every year on February 11. Its purpose is to promote the access and participation of women and girls in science. This day is a reminder that women and girls play an essential role in the scientific and technological community and that their participation must be strengthened.
