Abstract
Gender Equality is the fifth of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) proclaimed by the United Nations for the 2030 Agenda (UN General Assembly, 2015). We are only a few years away from 2030 and we still have much work to do to achieve gender equality, also in academia. In particular in the experimental and technical careers (the so-called STEM fields), women still account for only 28% and 40% of engineering and computer science graduates, respectively and according to the United Nations. In academia, women in science contend with shorter and less well-paid careers, only 12% representation in national science academies, and underrepresentation in high-profile journals both as authors and as editors (UNESCO et al., 2021).
