Gender Summit 15: United in Science and through Science
London
The 2018 Gender Summit in London is 15th in the series and the first for London. Like previous events it is led by influential science institutions, with the Science and Engineering South Consortium of leading universities as the principal partner.
GS15 builds on past discussions and recommendations and tackles fresh gender issues, in the context of new concerns such as: Brexit, impact of climate change, addressing societal challenges; opportunities and consequences of digital transformation, the 4th Industrial Revolution; strengthening societal responsibility and relevance of research and innovation; ensuring the success of the UN Sustainable Development agenda; and managing the interactions between scientific, political and policy agendas in a rapidly changing world.
