WOMEN IN SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING: TOWARDS MORE INCLUSIVENESS
Organized as part of the International Day of Women and Girls in Science and under the honorary presidency of Université Laval President Sophie D'Amours, Sentinelle Nord and its partners invited the public to join academic and professional stakeholders to discuss the place of women in science and engineering, and to determine together what practices should be favoured to shape more inclusive, efficient and forward-looking environments.
