Printemps de l’économie 2023 - Women and Science: overcoming gender stereotypes | April 5 to 7
Paris School of Economics is once again a partner of the Printemps de l’économie whose 2023 edition, entitled “Action! Time to Commit”, will take place from April 5 to 7. Many professors from the Paris School of Economics will once again be present.
PSE is organizing a session on Friday April 7 on the theme: “Women and Science: going beyond gender stereotypes.”
Women are largely under-represented in scientific careers. Why is it important to attract women to these careers? How are gender stereotypes constructed and disseminated, in France and abroad? What link can be established with societal inequalities? These are all questions that will be addressed during this session, which will also include a reflection on possible solutions. The role of ’models’ in the deconstruction of these stereotypes and the influence of institutions will be discussed, with the example of the division and then the reunification of Germany.
Date : Friday, April 07 from 3:15 pm to 4:15 pm
Location : Hemicycle of the Economic, Social and Environmental Council 9, Place d’Iéna 75016 Paris and at distance

Valérie Archambault, Deputy Director of Research in charge of industrial partnerships at the Ecole des Mines de Paris (MINES-PSL), member of the association Femmes et Sciences.
