On 12 February 2026, the Université de Namur in Belgium will host the 6th edition of Women in Science, an annual event dedicated to advancing gender equality and diversity in science and technology. Taking place from 09:00 to 17:00 at the Université de Namur (Rue de Bruxelles 61, 5000 Namur), the event brings together researchers, students, educators, and institutional stakeholders committed to building a more inclusive scientific community.

This full-day event aims to promote women’s and girls’ access to scientific and technological fields and to support their full and equal participation at all levels.
