In 2022, how are women in STEM (science, technology, engineering and
mathematics) faring? The Manifesto about Women in STEM is a collection of 50
texts that speak to the population at large. It brings together the thoughts
of several authors, including individuals (both women and men) and groups from
the school, university and private sector realms, who work with women in STEM
in French-speaking Canada. This Manifesto is intended to be positive and
impactful, even if work still remains to be done to achieve equity and
equality. Several important issues are still current, such as workfamily
balance and motherhood without penalty. Issues such as intersectionality, EDI
(equity, diversity and inclusion) and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on
women in STEM are also explored. There are texts that address the intersection
of STEM and each of health, the arts, education and philosophy. Others deal
with women who experience multiple forms of discrimination, for example
Indigenous women and non-heterosexual women in STEM. Pioneers relate their
obstacle-ridden but fulfilling journeys. Seven recommendations are proposed
for a society looking to achieve equity, diversity and inclusion of women in
STEM in an intersectional perspective.
