16 July 2020: The AIC Presents Women in STEM - a podcast by The Australia-Indonesia Centre

from 2020-07-16T01:00

The coronavirus pandemic has shown the vital role that science and  research have in understanding the world we live in, and helping to  develop sound policy and evidence-based decisions in the face of an  unprecedented situation.


Gender equality is critical to improved research and application.  However, on average, only 30% of the world’s researchers are women, and  women are still underrepresented as both students and employees in the  fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics.


Our webinar, which took place from 10 am WIB (11 am WITA, 1pm AEST) on 16 July, aimed to:



  • Introduce women who are clearing the path and providing inspiration,

  • Learn how to overcome challenges in STEM fields; and

  • Understand that study in STEM is good for a career, and good for the world.
