Nations Stand to Benefit From Gender Equality and Increased Participation by Women
Tomorrow is a day wholly devoted to women's rights [1, 2]. There are millions of war widows all around the world and poverty among women is exacerbated by systemic and systematic inequality. In the discipline of science (including technology) women tend to be paid a lot less for comparable roles occupied by men and enrollment numbers of women in the various sciences are almost universally far smaller than men's. It's not because women are less smart; it's just that they're often obstructed and role expectations (e.g. so-called 'tradwife') relegate them at every level.
At the EPO, we've long observed this phenomenon.
Nations and societies are better (or best) off when the potential of all their people - both men and women - is fully fulfilled. To improve the collective well-being and welfare of nations we need to do our best to support women's true ambition. Let them decide, they should determine their own destiny. Welcome them and their choices.
International Women's Rights Day starts in about 6 hours in the UK. █
