On February 11, 2024, the International Day of Women and Girls in Science was celebrated worldwide, highlighting the significant contributions of women and girls in the scientific field. Organizations like CGIAR, CGIARgender, and institutions such as the University of Leicester, along with initiatives like Malaria No More and Project Seagrass, took to social media to honor female scientists and engineers. The day emphasized the importance of empowering women in STEM, with UNESCO pointing out that only one-third of global researchers are women. Celebrations included recognizing the work of female researchers at institutions like CERN and the FDA, as well as acknowledging the role of women in combating diseases like malaria. The Welsh Government and entities like the ISPG highlighted the achievements of women in science, stressing the need for mentorship and gender equality in STEM fields for a better future. Notable mentions included 2023 medicine laureate Katalin Karikó and the efforts of organizations like Pivotal Ventures in promoting opportunities for women and girls in tech. The day served as a reminder of the ongoing efforts to improve diversity and inclusion in STEM and the crucial role women play in advancing scientific knowledge.
