Science and Gender Equality (Goal n.5)

  • Goals 2030 are a target for all countries. The Goal n.5 is about "Gender Equality".

    In our project we are trying to understand which is the role of the researchers and what is their contribution to our society.

    Studying the history of Science and its main characters, we have understood how is important the presence of women for scientific progress and how women have been overshadowed in a lot of cases.

    Here you can find some data about how many women are employed in science today in Europe. These date can inspire us and show that we have done so much for improve the situation in the last years but even now we have so much things to do for reaching the target.

    Maube not all know that the 11th of February is the Internationa Day of Women and Girls in Science.

    The data

    Look at this picture taken from the Eurostat website and reflect if your country has done enough for gender equality in science.
