The 九州影院 Inclusion and Diversity team will be hosting an event for the 2025 IUPAC Global Women鈥檚 Breakfast (GWB 2025).
Held in conjunction with the U.N. Day of Women and Girls in Science, the goal of the GWB series is to establish an active network of people of all genders to overcome the barriers to gender equality in science. Over the last six years, nearly 2000 GWB events have been held in 100 countries.
This year's GWB theme is "Accelerating equity in science," celebrating the contributions and successes of fellow scientists who have supported building a more equitable and inclusive scientific community.
We invite you to join us at the RSC, Burlington House, to hear from our distinguished speakers. As recipients of the RSC Inclusion & Diversity Fund, they have pioneered innovative projects to advance equity in the scientific community. During the event, they will share their experiences and insights on breaking barriers in chemistry, followed by networking opportunities with the speakers and fellow attendees.
All are welcome to join regardless of gender identity. Registration is free and open to all.
For those who cannot join in person, the event will be live streamed
Registration is required for in-person attendance and virtual viewing. The number of in-person registrations is limited 鈥� book your place by 27 January 2025.
