In this webinar, the results of the collaborative study “Gender Equality in Science: Inclusion and Participation of Women in Global Science Organizations” conducted by GenderInSITE, the InterAcademy Partnership (IAP) and the International Science Council (ISC) are presented. Global surveys of science academies that are Members of the IAP and the ISC, as well as international disciplinary unions and associations that are Members of the ISC, show that women remain underrepresented in global science.
