National Workshop on “Women in Scientific Research – Examining the Challenges and Identifying their Needs

NATIONAL WORKSHOP on “Women in Scientific Research – Examining the Challenges and Identifying their Needs”

2 - 3 March, 2012

Catalyzed and Supported by National Council for Science & Technology Communication, DST, New Delhi

Coordinated by Department of Chemistry Nagaland University

Hosted by Department of Chemistry Gauhati University

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

A National Workshop, on the theme “Women in Scientific Research – Examining the Challenges and Identifying their Needs” will be held at Gauhati University. The objective of the workshop is to comprehend and record the different situations most working women confront in day-to-day life. This in turn is expected to facilitate an understanding of the different challenges women scientists face in pursuing their professions and allow a discussion on the ‘real’ requirements of women scientists/ professionals in the contemporary age of liberalization and globalization. The challenges faced by women scientists are much the same as those faced by most working women, and it is hoped that this workshop on examination of challenges and identification of needs may benefit all those women who aspire to have a meaningful professional career. The intention of the workshop is to provide a platform for analysis, which may offer pathways for converting challenges into opportunities. WHO CAN PARTICIPATE Participant may be any member of society who is (i) interested in the issue, (ii) social thinker, (iii) working woman, (iv) student, (v) research scholar, (vi) teacher, (vii) woman scientist, and/ or (viii) policy planner/ maker. Women, who could not pursue their careers (in any specialization or training) even after adequate education, are specially invited to participate and share their thoughts on this issue, which might help in providing useful solutions to this current global problem. SUB-THEMES OF THE WORKSHOP

·         Analyzing why women do not opt for the profession of scientific research

·         Examining the challenges faced by women scientists/ women professionals

·         Social problems faced by working women

·         Impact of marriage on career and profession

·         Bringing up children – addressing the concerns of working mothers

·         Identifying the needs of women scientists
