International Day of Women and Girls in Science is a moment to celebrate the incredible women and girls who are shaping the future of science and innovation.
At TRIUMF, we are proud to be part of a community that empowers women to lead, innovate, and break barriers in research and discovery. From groundbreaking experiments to inspiring the next generation of scientists, women and girls are making a profound impact every day.
This day reminds us of the importance of diversity in STEM and the need to continue advocating for equal opportunities, representation, and support for women in science. Let’s keep encouraging young girls to explore their passion for science, pursue their dreams, and build the future they deserve.
Here are a few resources to review:
- The UN’s International Day of Women and Girls in Science homepage
- UNESCO’s new ‘Imagine a world with more women in science‘ campaign

To all the women and girls making waves in science — we see you, we support you, and we’re excited to see where your discoveries take us! #InternationalDayOfWomenandGirlsinSTEM
