Zaharieva announces plan to support women in science
The European Commission will adopt a dedicated plan to support women in research and innovation next year, according to Ekaterina Zaharieva, the commissioner responsible for start-ups, research, and innovation.
“The action plan will propose measures addressing the specific needs of women in research and innovation,” Zaharieva said during a workshop organised on November 5 by STOA, the European Parliament’s science and technology advisory panel.
She added, “It will help make our universities, labs, and start-ups safe from harassment and gender-based violence. It will support women who want to balance both a family and a scientific career, and will increase support to women-led start-ups and scale-ups.”
A call for evidence to inform the development of the plan will be issued by the end of 2025.
Although women account for nearly half of doctoral graduates, gender disparities persist in the fields of research and innovation.
