Cécile Giradin explains NbS at Oxford Women in Science

Just 35% of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) students in higher education in the UK are women. Although the physical sciences (biology, chemistry, physics) are less gender-biased than the other STEM subjects, the percentage of women still sits at just 37%. At the Women in STEM event in Oxford, Cécile took the opportunity to encourage women to learn about and work in ecology and Nature-based Solutions.
