There are too few women researchers in Denmark. More than half of all university students are women but only one in ten professors is a woman. The Minister for Science and the Minister for Gender Equality's Think Tank on More Women in Research has made its assessment of the nature of the problem.
The Think Tank's proposals for initiatives and solutions are to contribute to recruiting and retaining more female researchers at universities, at government research institutions and in private enterprises for the benefit of research, the research environments, and gender equality. Not least, seen in a global perspective, it will contribute to securing Denmark a prominent position economically as well as knowledge-wise.
