Photo exhibition: Not a woman’s job?
Changing Faces of Science and Tech
The photo exhibition Not a woman’s job? is organized by the Perception Change Project at the United Nations Office at Geneva with the participation of the European Organization for Nuclear Research and the International Telecommunication Union.
The Organizers have invited ITU stakeholders to submit photos featuring the achievements and stories of women (18+) who have challenged gender stereotypes and overcome barriers in the field of science and technology.
Celebrating women who dare to lead, innovate and forge new paths in science and tech:
Physicist and chemist. The first and only woman in the world to receive the Nobel Prize twice. Together with Pierre Curie and Henri Becquerel, in 1903 she received the Nobel Prize in Physics for her research on the phenomenon of radioactivity. She received a second prize in 1911 in chemistry for discovering the new elements, polonium and radium. Her discoveries have become a breakthrough in the fight against cancer.
