All fellow female scientists, happy International day of girls and women in science. NanoPoli , as the mostly female team, is taking a moment to think about this important recognition by the United Nations.

Last century was a game changer for female talents in science. In most of the world, girls and women in science are having equal chances and are even dominating some areas. What remains ahead of us is the struggle for more female leadership positions in science access to the proper maternity leave and childcare.🌍

We are proud to say that Bosnia and Herzegovina offers this to female scientists. Our country, regardless of the historical hardships it faced in the last century, has 100% paid maternity leave for 12 months and an incredible tradition of the national kindergartens which offer safety for the children while mom-scientists are changing the world for 8 hours a day. 🌟🌟🌟
