ICIAM is an active participant in the Standing Committee on Gender Equality in Science (SCGES). The SCGES Webinar Series is a regular event organized by its Partner Institutions and coordinated by the SCGES. The series highlights various topics of interest around the focus of the Committee. The initiative was launched in 2022, and all past SCGES Webinars are easily accessible for viewing on the SCGES YouTube channel.
The next event in the webinar series will be a hybrid event entitled, “How to Evaluate and Reduce the Gender Gap in Science?” This event will simultaneously be part of the SCGES webinar series and the Global Women’s Breakfast. The event will take place Tuesday 14 February 2023, 9H-12H 45 CET=UTC+1 at the Campus Condorcet, Conference Center, Room 50 (ground floor), 93300 Aubervilliers, (Greater Paris, France), Metro: Front Populaire (line 12). The session will discuss the Gender Gap in Science project which ended in 2019. The session will reflect on the Gender Gap Project’s results, follow up with outcomes, and discuss alternative approaches.
