1.0 INTRODUCTION
Science and gender equality are both vital for the achievement of the
internationally agreed development goals, including the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable
Development. Over the past 15 years, the global community has made a lot of effort in
inspiring and engaging women and girls in science. Unfortunately, women and girls
continued to be excluded from participating fully in science. According to a study
conducted in 14 countries, the probability for female students of graduating with a
Bachelor’s degree, Master’s degree and Doctor’s degree in science-related field are 18%,
8% and 2% respectively, while the percentages of male students are 37%, 18% and 6%.
