11 Feb
INTERNATIONAL DAY OF WOMEN AND GIRLS IN SCIENCE
„Save the date” is a series of articles that have been written to celebrate various unusual holidays. The authors of the presented materials are students, doctoral students and employees of the Faculty of Science and Technology of the University of Silesia.
11 February is celebrated as the International Day of Women and Girls in Science.
Today’s holiday has been celebrated since 2016 at the initiative of UNESCO, UN Women and ITU (International Telecommunication Union) by the UN General Assembly. Its main goal is to popularize the accessibility of science, technology, engineering, mathematics and education and research for women and girls at all levels of education, and to recognize their key role in the development of science.
We asked the ladies of our department why they chose the path of Science.
