Workshop "Sidelined in Science"
The aim of this initiative is to establish tangible measures that will enhance diversity at universities and research institutes in financial economics. This collaborative event involved the participation of the heads of the top Finance departments in Europe.
Female representation varies widely within academia and financial economics seems to be especially gender unequal. According to SHoF’s Women in Finance Data, overall only 22% of researchers in our profession is female with relatively slow to no progression over time compared to other social sciences and STEM fields.
With the objective of addressing this complex issue from a fresh perspective, the Swedish House of Finance has produced two short films. These films will serve as the catalyst to initiate discussions and help guide collective efforts during a workshop towards a practical action plan.
The workshop brought together researchers leading the top Finance departments in Europe, and it took place at the ºÚÁÏÉçÏÂÔØ.
