Sommario/riassunto: | This e-book explores the under-representation of women in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). Research and policy have continuously identified a number of barriers, including discrimination, stereotypes, the very nature of the scientific culture, organisational culture, work-life balance and family issues and a lack of female role models. |
