“Women and Girls in Science and Technology” – Share your passion, inspire the scientists of tomorrow!

For the ninth consecutive year, CERN, UNIGE, EPFL, and LAPP are teaming up to celebrate the International Day of Women and Girls in Science. During the week of February 10 to 14, 2025, female scientists and engineers will visit schools in the region to inspire younger generations to explore the world of science. As science ambassadors, you’ll have the opportunity to share your journey, talk about your projects and professional experiences, and even perform small demonstrations. Our goal is to transform students’ perceptions of scientific, technical, and technological careers and make them accessible to both girls and boys. Who knows, your visit might inspire future scientists! Every year, Women and Girls in Science and Technology Week is a great success. In 2024, over 263 presentations were delivered by 100 ambassadors to 5,836 students! We are always looking for more female scientists willing to dedicate some time to visit schools. Join the adventure and sign up!
