    Description

    Cecilia gives her eight-point plan for how to tackle inequality for women in environmental science. These include:

    • It is essential to create a platform, or a social space, to ensure that regular and engagement about women and environmental issues takes place.
    • Institutional support is needed to help empower women at all levels to cope with the problems of health, poverty and food insecurity.
    • Promote and encourage access to lifelong learning for women who are returning back to education.
