Location
Since 2019, the IUPAC Global Women’s Breakfast has become an annual successful event to bring women working in science together. The breakfast is an excellent opportunity to focus on the achievements of women in science, to expand professional networks, to learn from each other, and to raise awareness of the challenges women scientists face in the academic, industry and government institutions. On 10 February, ZDHC is hosting the third Global Women Breakfast to bring the ZDHC community of women (and men) together to celebrate women in science.
An outstanding line-up of speakers is ready to share their experiences working in the field. Coming from diverse backgrounds, stakeholder groups, and career paths, they all have one thing in common: they are women scientists. Together, they will reflect on the challenges they have faced and the opportunities they have encountered throughout their careers.
Together, we will look ahead and identify opportunities for ZDHC to work on the topic of gender & chemicals in 2026.
Speakers:
- Tiffany Gomez (The Children’s Place)
