Funding Women in Academia
Manage episode 375641300 series 2793177
In this episode of Africa Science Focus, we explore how funding agencies are supporting women in research. We take a look at the barriers that persist for women pursuing academic careers and how these can be broken down.
How can funding for women’s research in Africa help them contribute to knowledge creation on an equal footing to men and compete on the global stage? And how can data on gender help funding agencies address gaps in grant allocation?
Our reporter, Michael Kaloki, has been speaking to African women in science about their experiences and the new initiatives aimed at levelling the playing field.
This podcast was supported by the Science Granting Councils Initiative, which aims to strengthen the institutional capacities of 18 public science funding agencies in Sub-Saharan Africa.
