Women in environmental sciences: How to tackle inequality

Press/Media: Blogs and social media

Description

On Ada Lovelace day, an eight-point plan for how to tackle inequality for women in environmental science was presented including:

  • 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.
