Biosistemak brings science to classrooms to inspire<\/h1>\n

During the Women in Science Week, our institute has approached an educational centre to encourage scientific vocations among future generations.<\/h4>\n

On Thursday 13 February, on the occasion of the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, our colleague and researcher Irati Erreguerena<\/a> <\/strong><\/span>visited the Ikastola Intxixu in San Inazio (Bilbao)<\/a><\/strong> \u00a0<\/span>to give an informative talk on science to 1st Primary School pupils.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The aim of the visit was to bring science and research closer to the public as key activities directly related to people’s well-being and health, highlighting the leading role of women in this field. This initiative aims to bring scientific activity closer to children, to showcase female references in the scientific field <\/strong>and to encourage interest in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics)<\/a> \u00a0<\/strong><\/span>vocations, <\/strong>especially among girls from an early age.<\/p>\n

Through research projects implemented in real and close environments, such as Health4EUKids<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, where the Basque Country has launched the Erandio mugitzen ari da! <\/a><\/strong><\/span>pilot, Biosistemak works to inspire new generations and break with the gender stereotypes that still persist in the scientific field.<\/p>\n

During the talk and dynamics organised with children aged 6 and 7, key concepts such as what science is, what health means, how to take care of oneself and how the environment in which they live (neighbourhood, family, school, city) directly influences their wellbeing, emotions and health were addressed.<\/p>\n

Women in science<\/h3>\n

Equal access to STEM careers remains a global challenge. According to UNESCO<\/span><\/strong><\/a> data, only 33% of the world’s research personnel are women<\/strong>, and only 35% of students in these fields are women<\/strong>. These figures reflect a persistent gender gap that limits equal access to these fundamental areas for sustainable development<\/p>\n

For this reason, at Biosistemak we advocate promoting the leadership of our female researchers, making their work visible and promoting policies that foster an egalitarian environment.<\/p>\n

These informative talks not only seek to awaken scientific curiosity among young girls, but also to reinforce the idea that they can lead research, do science and contribute to social progress. These types of activities are essential to build a more inclusive and equitable future where everyone has the same opportunities to develop professionally.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":16708,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[197],"tags":[2313,2322,2323,2314,2315,2324],"class_list":["post-16628","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-kronikgune-news","tag-11-de-febrero-en","tag-11th-february","tag-equality","tag-igualdad-en","tag-mujer-y-ciencia-en","tag-women-and-science"],"yoast_head":"\nBiosistemak
