Jeudi 5 Décembre 2024 | 12h15 - Uni Mail, auditoire MR280
Comment garantir une réelle égalité des chances sur le marché de l’emploi? Quel rôle l’université peut-elle jouer pour accompagner cette inclusion? Quels obstacles persistent encore dans les parcours professionnels, et quelles solutions concrètes peuvent être mises en place pour y remédier?
À travers des témoignages inspirants, des éclairages juridiques et des retours d’expériences de terrain, cet événement propose un échange autour des défis et des perspectives.

Check out the latest post on Women in STEM at CERN, these are not the usual scientists, they are students, teachers and projects leaders coming from all around globe but all connected by their experience at CERN: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7259119088604450816/
This article series is a part of a larger initiative by CERN & Society Foundation to inspire young girls and women in STEM careers and help aspiring scientists push existing boundaries. Our Women in STEM campaign aims to reduce the gap between dreaming and achieving fulfilling careers in science: https://cernandsocietyfoundation.cern/news/you-belong-science-open-letter-violeta
