“As part of our ministry, we are working committed and committed to breaking down the gender gaps in the scientific ecosystem, which are very deep,” Castro said on the occasion.
“That is why we are convinced and convinced that this table will be very important because it will operate permanently and is of an advisory nature to communicate with other similar tables that are being prepared throughout the country, and with our ministry,” Seremi explains.
The table will seek to propose concrete measures so that they can be studied within the Ministry of Science and thus participate in the updating of public policies on gender in the CTCI. The sectoral authority emphasized that the proposed solutions will be developed from a regional perspective, taking into account the characteristics of each region.
