#TheScienceGirls movement

Putting our energy to work for equality

We are taking part in the International Day of Women and Girls in Science with #TheScienceGirls movement.

The world needs science, and science needs women

#TheScienceGirls is an initiative advocating for gender equality that we have been working on for years to increase awareness around the scientific work of women and develop in girls an interest in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics).
