There needs to be a concerted effort in recruitment, retention and promotion of women
to the highest levels of science and technology. Countries must strengthen the links
between education, science and the labor market, ensuring that gender stereotypes
and bias are removed from classrooms. This seminar will explore the significance of
girls’ early interest in science, on gender equity in science fields, and the factors that
need to be put in place to improve the number of girls and women in science at all levels
of education, employment and science innovation.

Symposia, panel and workshop
In this symposium the relation between gender research and the feminist movement
in developing and developed countries will be discussed. Also the gender theory will
be analyzed with special focus on the prospects of policy learning between regions
and within regions. As an example the new trends in Middle Eastern gender studies
and its application in the Arab region will be addressed, taking into consideration their
own customs and traditions, levels of modernization and religious manifestations.

well as strategies to use it to lessen food insecurity in rural areas.

Energy is central to sustainable development and poverty reduction efforts. It affects
all aspects of development -- social, economic, and environmental -- including livelihoods, access to water, agricultural productivity, health, population levels, education,
and gender-related issues. Access to sustainable sources of clean, reliable and affordable energy has a profound impact on multiple aspects of human development; it
relates not only to physical infrastructure (e.g. electricity grids), but also to energy affordability, reliability and commercial viability. In practical terms, this means delivering

energy services to households and businesses that are in line with consumers’ ability
to pay. Approaches of various developing countries will be presented and analyzed.

Emerging Pollutants in Water Resources of Developing Countries: Who cares
and Who Dares?
MODERATOR
Olfa Mahjoub

PARTICIPANTS
Carmen Ponce-Caballero (Mexico); Petra Nnamani (Nigeria); Wafaa M. Abd
El-Rahim (Egypt).
Chemicals are being discovered in water that previously had not been detected or are
being detected at levels that may be significantly different than expected. These are
often generally referred to as “contaminants of emerging concern” (CECs) because the
risk to human health and the environment associated with their presence, frequency of
occurrence, or source may not be known, these emerging pollutants are new chemicals without regulatory status and which impact on environment and human health are
poorly understood. The objective of this symposium is analyzing the actual situation
concerning these and other pollutants in developing countries as well as strategies to
alleviate the situation.

López Martínez (Mexico); Chibuzo, Umeh (Nigeria)
Persistently high levels of ill health, exacerbated by HIV/AIDS, and inequalities in
health and access to health care indicate that equity issues in health care are still
inadequately addressed. What is needed is the will, at all levels of government, supported by outside funding sources, to devote the required resources to advancing the
cause of women’s health and to foster research on health with a gender perspective
at national and regional level in the developing world. Approaches of different countries will be discussed in this symposium.

México); Ana Puy Rodríguez (Universidad de la Laguna, España); Smita Smita
Srinivas (Columbia University, USA).
Is it feasible to change gender inequalities to promote gender equality public policy?
And more importantly how to deal with the quality- equality dilemma that is central for
the gender and science debate?

Towards Sustainable Entrepreneurship and Social Development
MODERATOR
Liliam Álvarez

PARTICIPANTS
Manuel Limonta (International Council for Science Regional Office for Latin America
and The Caribbean); Gustavo Viniegra (Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana plantel
Iztapalapa, Mexico).
Social entrepreneurship is about applying practical, innovative and sustainable approaches to benefit society in general, with an emphasis on those who are marginalized and
poor. It captures a unique approach to economic and social problems. It is this approach
that sets the social entrepreneur apart from the rest of the crowd of well-meaning people
and organizations who dedicate their lives to social improvement. Approaches and points
of view of researchers from different countries and organizations will be discussed.

Environment, Conservation and Sustainability: The role of Women
MODERATOR
Bibiana Vila
Argentina
PARTICIPANTS
Samira Omar (Kuwait); Bertha García (Peru); Kinkini Dasgupta Misra (India).
While women’s environmental contributions offer an incentive for a thorough analysis of gender, there is a broader perspective as well. Gender equality is essential for
countries’ economies and sustainable development is not possible without equity.
In fact, it is a prerequisite for any action aimed at improving people’s quality of life.
This implies that gender equality and equity are not only a question of fundamental
human rights and social justice, but are also instrumental, and a precondition, for
environmental conservation, sustainable development and human security (Julekha
Begum, Bangladesh).

(China); Silvia Torres (Mexico).
Although women have better access to education and employment in scientific fields
today than ever before, the playing field is not level one. Even though women and
men face many similar hurdles in science, women are more likely to falter because
they lack role models, support systems to help them balance family and work, and
professional networks that men can tap into more easily. Women scientist will tell
us their experience and proposals to make the way easier for girls who aim to be
scientist.

PARTICIPANTS
Veronica V.N. Akwukwuma (Nigeria); Cecilia Morales-Juárez, Micheline
Gutiérrez-Prieto & Diana Vargas (Mexico).
There is still a notable shortage of women in engineering, most people associate
math and science fields with men and humanities and the arts with women. Women
are still less likely to get an engineering job than men, influenced by societal norms
and workplace bias. There have been polls done that show that most people do
not think of engineering as a job where people are helping people or contributing to
society. Changing the image of engineering could make it clear that engineers do,
in fact, contribute to society in a meaningful way. This could go a long way toward
opening girls’ eyes to the possibility of a career in engineering. Seeing women who
are engineers can make a big difference too (Christianne Corbett).
Examples that show that women engineer can success in developing countries will
be analyzed as well as their influence to change the image of engineering.

Integrating a Gender Perspective into STI policies
MODERATOR
Michel Bergeron
University of Montreal, Canada
PARTICIPANTS
Lanxiang Zhao (China); Esther Orozco (Mexico); Erica Hynes (Argentina);
Gladys Esiobu (Nigeria); Lillian Alvarez (Cuba).
The challenge for policy-makers is to assess and understand the gender factor of
their human capital, and to build this knowledge into the design of their national development, including the national STI policies. The primary features of a gender-affirmative policy are: coherence, confirmation by evidence, integration into policy-making, and provisions for scaling up of successful programs (Anne Miroux). The models
for integrating a gender perspective into STI policies of different countries and the
constraints will be analyzed.
