At BCAM we continue to work on the Gender Equality Plan in order to offer equal opportunities for the team of the centre.
We encourage you to engage in BCAM efforts to increase the presence of women in our activities. Be active in promoting women's presence whenever you organize an event or invite a researcher! |

This February the "Emakumeak Zientzian" initiative was back. This program seeks to make the activity of women in science visible, to break with the typically male roles attributed to scientific-technical activities, and to encourage the choice of scientific careers among girls and adolescents. To this end, it promotes, organizes, develops, presents, and executes a broad program of activities around February 11.
Every year, several entities representing the science and technology network of the Basque Country, such as BCAM, participate as organizers of the initiative. |

The scientists who inspired us (XI): Another brick in the wall (written by Pablo Merino, PhD Student at BCAM)
History is written through the hegemony of great names and great legends, for reasons which, a priori, seem unperturbable within a social structure in which a vast quantity of unavoidable rules are as avoidable as the avoidable ones. I intend to present, in anonymous words and with anonymous people, a concise description and recognition of all those women that did also build their names and legends. |

II Gender and Science Communication
Gender and Science Communication is an event focused on reflecting on how and how to improve the gender perspective in this type of communication. If you want to expand your skills to communicate science with a gender perspective and you are interested in learning about other experiences of inclusive communication and sharing yours, this is your space. The second edition of Gender and Science Communication will be held on Tuesday, June 4, 2024, at Torre Iberdrola in Bilbao (morning and afternoon). | | |

Mujeres con Ciencia The blog Mujeres con Ciencia of the Chair of Scientific Culture of the University of the Basque Country has received the Zirgari Saria Equality Project Award 2024.
Mujeres con Ciencia is a project coordinated by Marta Macho-Stadler, PhD in Mathematics and professor at the UPV/EHU, and this year marks a decade since its launch. Throughout this time the blog has published, uninterruptedly, an article and one or several events a day related to the contribution of women to the scientific field, in addition to interviews or references to initiatives or exhibitions dealing with the same subject. This work has served to highlight the work of women in science, combat stereotypes and provide role models in the scientific field.
By 2023 almost 11,870,000 people have visited the blog which shows that Mujeres con Ciencia has established itself as a reference project in continuous growth. | | |
