THE WORLD NEEDS SCIENCE AND SCIENCE NEEDS WOMENS
“Life
is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance
and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are
gifted for something and that this thing must be attained” Marie Curie.
Today we celebrate #WomenInScience because gender equality and women’s
empowerment are pre-conditions 4 sustainable development.
On the Intl. Day of Women in Science, we honor women in all fields of
science — and look forward to educating the next generation. Equal
participation of women and girls in the fields of science is a critical
right and a means by which women can achieve their aspirations in life.
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is founded on the principle
of leaving no one behind, including women and girls who continue to be
systematically under-represented both as users and as leaders in the
science, technology and innovation space. The current trajectory will
not get us the world we want.
We need to encourage and support girls & women achieve their full potential as scientific researchers and innovators, less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women.
