2026 International Day of Women and Girls in Science
Join us for the 2026 International Day of Women and Girls in Science, which will be celebrated on Wednesday, 11 February 2026, from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. (CET) at UNESCO Headquarters (in Paris), with the possibility to join online.
Under the theme “From vision to impact: Redefining STEM by closing the gender gap”, and building on the 2024 UNESCO Call to Action “Closing the Gender Gap in Science”, the event will highlight concrete actions and good practices that are driving more inclusive Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) ecosystems worldwide.
Organized in collaboration with Femmes@Numérique, discussions will place a particular emphasis on new and emerging technologies and their role in closing the gender gap in STEM. The event will bring together Member States, scientists, policymakers, private- and public-sector stakeholders, UNESCO scientific networks and Chairs, journalists, as well as students.
