👉 As an international company, we need to make a difference and ensure we are doing our best to create the future we want. Over the past few days, many of my amazing colleagues have been sharing on LinkedIn which of the 17 SDG goals are a personal priority for them. 💙 💭 I have thought about it a lot in the past. I am a former finalist of a science competition; I worked on plastic prevention and the danger of microplastics. I was on stage at IFAT fair as a speaker about gender equality in STEM subjects. I represented Germany in a competition where students developed solutions for water problems worldwide. I was in local politics for 4 years and worked for a sustainable city. I am now working on climate protection with the help of IT. 💬 What I want to say: It is hard for me to choose just one SDG. However, I realize that education - the opportunity to learn and question our daily actions - has been the foundation of all my activities. In my opinion, a sustainable future is based on an educated society. Together, we have the possibility to ensure an equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for everybody. At Capgemini we unite for Quality Education - so do I. ❓ What do YOU unite for? 👇 Let my know in the comments! #CapgeminiUnitesToAct #Act4SDGs #capgemini #letthefutureyouwant #lifeatcapgemini

Lesson learned 👩🏫 from recent Mutual Learning Webinar given by Yellow Window Design with topic: 🎓 Mobilizing Students for Structural Change: 🗨 Empowering Tomorrow's Leaders: In universities, students aren't just learners; they're agents of change. By mobilizing them, we transform campus climates, raise awareness of gender bias, and make gender equality mechanisms more visible and accessible. 🧑 🧒 Students foster inclusive dialogue, expand gender knowledge, and empower themselves to make unbiased decisions. Let's harness their energy 🔋 to build a more equitable future. #StudentEmpowerment #GenderEquality Pertners: Yellow Window Design, Czech University of Life Sciences Prague, Hungarian University of Agriculture and Life Sciences, Nők a Tudományban Egyesület/ Association of Hungarian Women in Science, Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya and Faculty of management, University of Primorska

#UNGA2023 (September 2023, NY) was such a wonderful chance to listen to and engage in a variety of conversations linked to SDG4 progress, nonformal and informal education, financing challenges, inequalities, pedagogies, private sector and non state roles and the global public good, the future of employability, gender equality, multistakeholder and multisectoral partnerships, climate change, technology in education, and the SDGs at large. We do work on such a breadth of topics at the GEM Report! Besides the buzz of the event, the variety of venues and side events, and the broad call to recommit to the SDGs, it was heartening to hear at least some concrete interventions and engagements, especially by young leaders. Still, I primarily leave with a reminder of the sobering reality - we need to do better. Thank you for all the exchanges, and see you next time!

🌍 Eliminating Gender Disparities in Education 🌍 During the first trimester of my MSc, I had the incredible opportunity to delve into Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4.5, focusing on eliminating gender disparities in education. Under the guidance of our lecturer Frances MacInnes, I embarked on a journey of discovery and storytelling that truly enlightened me. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), established by the United Nations, aim to address global challenges and achieve a better and more sustainable future for all by 2030. They cover a broad range of issues including poverty, inequality, climate change, environmental degradation, peace, and justice. Before this course, I had little knowledge of the SDGs. However, the MSkills course, led by Frances, highlighted their importance and the power of storytelling in conveying their significance. We were challenged to create a digital story for our chosen SDG, which became a transformative experience for me. For my assignment, I focused on an aspect of SDG 4.5 which aims to eliminate gender disparity and ensure equal access to all levels of education. This goal is pivotal in achieving gender equality and empowering women and girls. The project not only deepened my understanding of global educational disparities but also enhanced my research and storytelling skills. You can watch the digital story I created for this assignment on YouTube. I hope it inspires others to learn more about the SDGs and take action towards a more equitable world.

Today, we celebrate the UN International Day of Women and Girls in Science – an important date that reminds us of the critical role women and girls play in the fields of science and technology and the continuing need to support gender equality in STEM talent, recruitment and careers. Laura Andrukaitis, a Product Performance Advisor in Finished Lubricants Technology, has a degree in chemistry and a wide range of experience in marine industry issues. She shares insights into her career path and guidance for others looking to follow in her footsteps. “Careers in science are brilliant because they have longevity. You’re at the forefront of discovery, finding solutions to problems that can shape our future. The world will always need scientists.” “Science is fantastic because there are so many paths to pursue. If you’re unsure about which one to follow, ask yourself ‘can I see myself doing this discipline for years to come?’ That’s what I did and I’m still here more than 30 years later.” “Working in science isn’t just about lab work – it’s also about creativity. Keeping pace with rapidly evolving technological innovations is always exciting.” #ExxonMobil #Marine #WomenInScience

Head of Department Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions and Support to Experts at the European Research Executive Agency
Today we celebrate International #WomenInScience Day with the goal of inspiring and engaging others, and improving gender equality in the scientific environment. We support #WomenInSTEM: here in the EU, considerable resources are invested in fostering gender-equal working environments, as part of the European Commission’s #GenderEquality Strategy 2020-2025. 👩🔬 Inspired by the incredible legacy of Marie Skłodowska-Curie herself, the EU-funded #MarieSkłodowskaCurieActions programme for example funds #WomenAndGirls in STEM in Europe and beyond. The programme places strong emphasis on promoting gender, equal opportunities and a supportive environment for fellows and projects, in line with the principles of the European Charter for Researchers. 🔬 MSCA grants also allow for part-time work and parental leave. Under Horizon Europe, nearly 45% of all MSCA fellows are women, and they are more successful than men when applying for MSCA #PostdoctoralFellowships. We have prepared something truly special for you – an exclusive interview with Professor Anne L'Huillier, recipient of the 2023 #NobelPrize in Physics and former #MSCA beneficiary. 🏆 You can discover tomorrow morning what she told us about her inspiring journey into #science, the importance of the MSCA for #researchers' careers & why we need more Women in #STEM! In the meantime, I invite you to read our interview with two young, inspiring female researchers at the launch of the #EuropeanYearOfYouth: Annika Schlemm from Germany and Claudia Parra Paitan from Peru. They outline the inclusivity of the MSCA and give advice to young aspiring researchers! 👉 europa.eu/!YCbmyx
