Mulheres Cientistas Na Química Brasileira

Impact Assessment of an Affirmative Action to Promote Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Respect in Brazilian Chemistry during the COVID-19 Pandemic

“…Since the southeast region is the most populous, the richest, and the one with the largest number of postgraduate programs in chemistry (22) 20 in Brazil, it would be natural that the number of scientists disclosed in affirmative action belonged to this region (50%), if the selection criteria were strictly demographic and not to be a DEIR practice ( Figure 1 ). However, in the second place in the South Region which, although it has fewer postgraduate programs in chemistry and a smaller number of professionals working in this science when compared to the Northeast Region, 20 obtained 2.5 times the number of scientists disclosed in this DEIR action: 25% and 10%, respectively.…”

Finally, there was a similar tendency to favor women scientists in the affirmative action in economically wealthier administrative regions, since although the North Region has more inhabitants and has at least eight federal universities that offer the chemistry course, 20 as well as respective postgraduate programs in chemistry, there were no professionally active women scientists from the selected region to describe her trajectory, inspire and engage future local professionals, unlike the Central-West Region, where at least 15% of the participants in the “Where are they?” affirmative action are active professionals from that region.…”

“…However, since its foundation, SBQ has only had one female chemist holding the presidency of the institution and for only one term (2008). 20 SBQ is extremely active in its social media, communicating almost daily with all of its 4,000 associates through home page, an exclusive electronic newsletter via e-mail, as well as investing in other current social media: Facebook page (14,582 followers), Twitter profile (3,551 followers), and the Instagram page (2,530 followers). In 2019, SBQ met to an old demand from female chemists and created the “SBQ Women Nucleus” (Portuguese: “ Núcleo Mulheres SBQ”) with the purpose of providing data and highlighting the great women’s contributions in the chemistry scene in Brazil, as well as stimulating debate and reducing gender inequality in the Chemistry area at all levels of education, and contributing to the formation of female leaders in academia and industry.…”

Reflexos De Um Projeto De Extensão Voltado Às Ciências E Ao Público Feminino: Família, Comunidade Escolar E Autoanálise / Reflections of an Extension Project for Sciences and Female Public: Family, School Community and Self-Analysis

“…Marie Curie foi um marco para a ciência, e seus trabalhos sobre radioatividade foram ignorados na Academia de Ciências até seu marido assinar coautoria (Guimarães, M., 2011). Mesmo que a presença feminina durante a formação universitária seja superior à masculina, quando é observado a ascensão profissional científica, citações e Prêmio Nobel, os homens ainda ganham maior destaque (Naidek, N. et al, 2020).…”

Mulheres Cientistas e o Ensino de Ciências Naturais: um panorama das publicações do ENEQ e ENPEC

“…Esse percentual tem um ligeiro decréscimo para 52% na pós-graduação (mestrado e doutorado). Em relação à docência, nos cursos de graduação, a presença feminina é de 42%, havendo uma diminuição desse percentual para 36% de mulheres que orientam na pós-graduação (NAIDEKA et al, 2020) Nessa categoria foram elencadas oito pesquisas, cinco publicadas no ENEQ (AGUILAR et al, 2016;SACHS et al, 2016;PROENÇA et al, 2018 A imagem de Marie Curie e de seu fazer científico: relações de gênero em narrativas históricas. BONFIM; DIAS, 2020.…”
