Making networks strong and visible
Networks are central in all career stages of scientists. They are a fundamental part of science culture and help strengthen scientific careers.
Given that a lack of networks is a career obstacle particularly for women, we want to make sure that different networking initiatives for and by female scientists at the University of Vienna are made more visible. If there are networking initiatives for other diversity categories as well, we are glad to point them out, too.
If you are part of a networking initiative that hasn't been mentioned here yet, please let us know the name of the initiative, its target group and contact data / a website for it. A short mail to equality@univie.ac.at is enough!
