"Madam President, women are under-represented in science and scientific research. In Europe, they account for 30% of researchers and only 18% of professors. Among those involved in the management of science, we account for 27%. Poland, where the share of female board members in institutions of higher education and scientific institutes is 7%, is in second-to-last place among the 27 Member States of the Union.
This is why the ‘Women in Science’ research project, prepared by the Polish-based Academic Enterprise Foundation, is so important. The project concerns research into the causes of discrimination and the search for effective anti-discrimination measures. Citizens’ projects, which come from citizens themselves and are directed at citizens, have the greatest chance of success. I appeal to the European Commission for special support and practical help for social organisations which take up such matters. When the citizens of the Union write to the Commission, their letters must not go unanswered."@en1
