Gender Mainstreaming in STEM and Global Change Sciences

On October 14–15, 2015, the Global Change Research Centre of the CAS organized an international conference within the project of FP7 – EGERA. The need for gender mainstreaming in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) is obvious, however in many STEM disciplines gender reflexion is in the very beginning. This is also the case of the climate and global change research where this complex interdisciplinary approach should also be aware of gender aspects. Conference speakers were international experts in gender in science and stakeholders of gender mainstreaming processes in the academia.
