Understanding the Current Landscape for Women in STEM
A comprehensive exploration of the status of women in STEM disciplines—including astronomy, biology, chemistry, computer science, engineering, earth sciences, health sciences, information technology, mathematics, and physics—necessitated the creation of two targeted surveys aimed at both students and professionals.
Key Areas of Focus
These surveys delve into pivotal subjects such as educational experiences, career advancement, work-life harmony, biases, instances of harassment, obstacles to leadership roles, and discrepancies in pay. The initiative seeks to compile data from a variety of environments in order to uncover both widespread patterns and local specificities.
Aiming for Comprehensive Insight
By gathering insights from diverse populations, this initiative aspires to shed light on the unique challenges and achievements faced by women in STEM across different regions. Ultimately, it is committed to fostering a more equitable environment in these fields.
