The vice-rector for Innovation, Transfer and Scientific Dissemination of the Universitat Jaume I, David Cabedo, together with the director of Espaitec, Juan Antonio Bertolín, welcomed the 3rd year ESO students of the Torre del Rei secondary school in Oropesa del Mar on a day dedicated to promoting STEM vocations, those related to the disciplines of science, technology, engineering and mathematics, especially among female students in secondary education.

David Cabedo stressed in his speech that "the role assigned to men and the role assigned to women in the organisation of the knowledge system of our society defines us as such and affects us all, especially in what science says about women and men, their role in the creation of science, and the roles that both play in the social environment of science".

Currently, there is a considerable gender gap in STEM professions and degrees. This is why science and technology parks have promoted actions for dissemination and immersion in these vocations, coordinated through the Association of Science and Technology Parks of Spain (APTE), in order to try to reverse this situation. Juan Antonio Bertolín highlighted "the effort being made by the science and technology parks, participants in the initiative, to highlight to society, particularly in the female sphere, the importance of scientific vocations with examples of some thirty women scientists of great importance who have made history, such as the biochemist Margarita Salas, and more than 160 current women scientists, in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, who have been presented throughout the five editions of the programme".

During the day, the students of the Torre del Rei secondary school in Oropesa del Mar had the opportunity to experience first-hand talking to successful female technologists and scientists who work in their immediate environment, and to visit the exhibition "Women who changed the world", which highlights profiles that have stood out in the technological or scientific sector throughout history.

The round table was attended by Gladys Mínguez, lecturer in the Department of Physics at the School of Technology and Experimental Sciences of the UJI; Susana Pérez, project manager in Maintenance at BP Castellón Refinery and coordinator of the bpSTEM programme since 2018; and Marianella Martínez, entrepreneur and co-founder of the technology companies Roofeco and BluePlasma Power, who highlighted the need for more women to make their way professionally in the field of science. With this, the stereotype that these are professions dedicated to a male audience is banished, as many women throughout history have made great achievements for humanity, improving many scientific and technological fields and disciplines that are currently vital, such as medicine, biology, physics, chemistry and engineering.

The conference "Science and Technology for Women" is supported by the Department of Innovation, Universities, Science and Digital Society of the Generalitat Valenciana.
