Women in STEM: the event of Collegio di Milano for Bookcity 2023

This year too, Fondazione Collegio delle Università Milanesi participates in Bookcity Milano, the initiative created by the City of Milan and from Associazione Bookcity Milano (Fondazione Corriere della Sera, Fondazione Giangiacomo Feltrinelli, Fondazione Arnoldo e Alberto Mondadori, Fondazione Scuola per Librai Umberto e Elisabetta Mauri), joined by the Italian Editors Association.

On Friday, November 17, starting from 6:00 pm, we will host the event “Sognare e realizzare la parità nella scienza” (translation: Dreaming and creating equity in science): the debate will deal not only with discrimination in history and the weight of prejudice, but also the contribution of female scientists, often invisible and hidden, and the fight for equity, in addition to the female role models who still guide young women today who do not want to give up their passion.
