Use support and mentorship programs to assist females and women in networking, facing discrimination challenges, and caregiver stereotype obstacles.
Description
This prototype focuses on mentorship supporting women in coping with challenges such as discrimination, caregiver stereotypes, and several others where intersectionality plays an important role.
Rationale
Addressing the need for developing mentorship programs is critical because if women in STI are not advised to cope with their challenges and obstacles, it can have a negative impact on retention and equality in academia.
Action to be implemented
Develop a guide with potential academic actions and activities that can be implemented to ensure that women in STI are mentored in their institutions.
