The Motherhood and Science Network offers a forum for all those who identify as mothers* and work in science to exchange ideas, network, support and inform each other.
Access their credo webpage to find out more about the selfconception of the network.
They offer a wide range of events and services, all of which focus on their three main targets: Research, networking and training.
A recent addition to their portfolio is the service of systemic counselling. To find out more follow this link.
We at METIS promote the network’s events on a regular basis. You can find their event webpage here.
But be sure to also have a look at the publications and their networking opportunities.
The network aims to expose and eliminate structural discrimination against unpaid care workers, which can affect parents of all genders in their roles as caregivers. It invites all parents to join in its cause to address this issue in the long term!
