@TraciInFinland They definitely will not have noticed. And if they do notice, then they will approach a woman in that field and probably tell her (half joking) that they need a woman for #genderbalance of the panel, rather than asking her to join for her knowledge and expertise......speaking from personal experience here 🙄 #quotenfrau #manels #academicchatter We have a long way to go....

Just looked at the website of a new journal in agriculture and rural studies.

Judging from the photos, of the 20 people on the board, 19 are men.

The journal claims to have emphasis on several agriculture and rural development topics, including "Farmer’s well-being, rural poverty alleviation and women’s studies".

I guess they don't notice the irony.

Maybe I was unlucky, but I was a bit disappointed by my experience yesterday at #ECR2023. Great scientific quality but slightly lacking #genderbalance. Changing established patterns requires conscious effort. Keeping it in mind for the organization of #ESMRMB2023

The first thing I am proud to be tasked with as new member of the #Unesco Netherlands committee, is to act as chair of the jury of the Dutch L’Oréal Unesco For Women in Science programme. The programme aims to improve the career prospects of women researchers in the Netherlands. #genderbalance https://www.unesco.nl/nl/publicatie/het-l-or-al-unesco-for-women-in-science-programma/the-dutch-l-or-al-unesco-for-women-in-science-programme-en

@renordquist I'm very much involved in #OpenStreetMap and am running a user survey. The #genderBalance in that community is very bad as well, with about 90% identifying as male. For now, there are more non-binary and genderqueer people who responded then women... (and I'm very glad to have them in our community, but it is striking to end up with such ratios - it means women are vastly underrepresented here). But I will try to fix it a little bit!

this isn’t necessarily because of differences between men and women, but because of the norms and traditions our society holds. women aren’t conditioned to seek power in the same way.
