Equality
Women and science
The CSIC, sensitive to the problem of the low presence of women in the scientific tasks of the Institution, which had persisted since the creation of the CSIC itself, led the Governing Board in 2002 to approve the Women and Science Commission with two particularly relevant objectives: to study the possible causes that hinder both the entry and career of women and to propose to the Presidency possible actions aimed at achieving equality between women and men in the CSIC. The CSIC was the first public and private research organization in Spain to create a Commission for Women and Science.
