Women and Science. Paths of / for women in research. Second meeting in the cycle of 5 events to overcome the ‘gender gap’

The Conference / Debate entitled “Women and Science. Paths of / for women in research “: a day that aims to create awareness about the role and representation of women in scientific careers and to stimulate the interest of young people, especially girls, in scientific careers.
The low representation of women in scientific, technological and academic fields means, in fact, not only depriving research of their contribution of creativity and diversity of ideas, but also creating a science that responds incompletely to the needs of the population.

The meeting represents the second appointment in the cycle of 5 events – promoted by Regione Campania, General Directorate for Social and Social-Health Policies and implemented by Sviluppo Campania SpA as part of the project “Tracing the differences. Entrepreneurship, science and knowledge to overcome the gender gap “- which aims to provide information and impetus to the complete implementation of the lines of action provided for by DGR no. 112 of 02.27.2018.
The intervention is funded by the POR Campania ESF 2014-2020, as part of Axis I which promotes territorial information and animation campaigns aimed at spreading knowledge of the tools available to facilitate the participation of women in the labor market.

The cycle of meetings intends to propose moments of confrontation that also include an enhancement of “positive actions” (best cases at work, experiences of women) and information (opportunities, calls for proposals, intervention measures to overcome the gender gap at work), with testimonies from the world of work and knowledge, aimed at different targets of women looking for new training and professionalization paths, to artisans or third sector operators.
