There will be outreach activities about the gender gap in Science in the framework of the International Women’s Day 2024. Participants (mainly mathematicians, but also physicists, chemists, biologists and geologists) will present the key ideas about their research work, discuss the problems they are facing, organize round tables to raise awareness among young girls. From previous meetings and activities of the Gabonese women mathematicians, they will discuss solutions to reduce the gender gap in science.
The meeting on Women in Mathematics will take place on March 9, 2024. It will consist of :
- presentations and testimonies given by participants,
- round-tables to discuss the problem of gender gap in mathematics, raise awareness among girls and boys / women and men, share insights and discuss solutions. We will adopt a double perspective on research and teaching careers for women in mathematics.
This meeting will be organized jointly with the Association des femmes mathématiciennes du Gabon, which is the local branch of the African Women in Mathematics Association. The Chair Women of the talks will be Liliane Ogowet (ENS Libreville, Gabon) and Isabelle Ngningone Eya (UTSM).
