The International Day of Women and Girls in Science is observed annually on February 11 to promote gender equality in STEM fields. Established by the United Nations in 2015, this day highlights the crucial role of women and girls in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The 2025 theme, "Unpacking STEM Careers: Her Voice in Science," emphasizes encouraging young women to pursue careers in these fields and addressing barriers that hinder their progress. Achieving gender equality in science is essential for innovation, economic development, and the success of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
