Women and science: “A week as a woman scientist “
Women make up just 34% of researchers in Italy according to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD ). The percentage is very low, but it is rising. The Pathways for Transversal Skills and Orientation (PCTO) is guiding the “Week as a woman scientist ”, created in 2016 by the Bracco Foundation in collaboration with Centro Università degli Studi di Milano (CusMiBio). The initiative, which is aimed at girls in their fourth year of secondary school or technical college, revolves around the six points set out in the #Forwomeninscience manifesto.
“Women in STEM”: A project to nurture the participation of women in the sciences.
Confindustria's Fondazione Giuseppina Mai, in collaboration with the Bracco Foundation and Assolombarda's Steamiamoci project, is promoting female participation in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) studies by offering concrete opportunities for advancement to talented female students.
The aim is to reduce the high rate of early drop-outs among women in science subjects and encourage them to complete their studies.
