Kurzbeschrieb
Gender equality is a major concern of the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) and the r4d programme. The SNSF is fully committed to supporting women who wish to advance their professional careers. Female researchers, especially those from the Global South, face unique challenges in their postdoctoral career paths in academia, administration, and the private sector.
Based on the needs assessment conducted during the "Postdoc Event Series: Challenges and enablers of female postdoc researchers in the Global South", the SNSF has commissioned the ICFG to launch a 14-month pilot mentoring programme for r4d women postdocs from the Global South, with the aim of providing them with tools and strategies to advance their careers and to foster networking, empowerment and knowledge sharing among participants.
