Theme 8: Advancing Science and Inclusive Career Pathways in Sustainability-related Emerging Research and Innovation Fields

This session examines conditions and opportunities for developing careers in sustainability-related fields, many of which are necessarily interdisciplinary and emerging and therefore are not burdened by traditional male dominated research cultures and traditions, and more welcoming to women, as well as integration of gender perspectives into science practice.
