Question 17245 — gender equality and parity

Summary

Ms. Céline Calvez questions the Minister of National Education and Youth on the issue of promoting gender equality in student guidance. On May 31, 2018, the MP and the MP Stéphane Viry submitted a report on the place of women in the scientific field entitled “Women and science: urgent action for real equality”. This work has shown that women still occupy a place too limited in the so-called “hard” sciences and that despite certain advances, the situation evolves only very slowly, and sometimes even shows a certain decline. This imbalance is found from the choice of options at the end of school and into professional life. 23 recommendations are made in this report. The fourth recommendation is to take stock of the implementation of the Interministerial Convention for Equality between girls and boys, to evaluate the implementation of equality training in ESPEs and to generalize good practices. To deconstruct preconceived ideas which result in the under-representation of girls in scientific options and fields, this proposal encourages us to establish an inventory of actions carried out in favor of equality. This approach is likely to promote good practices already in place and to encourage reinforced action in favor of equality between girls and boys. This is why she asks him for an assessment of the implementation of the interministerial agreement and to indicate how good practices in the new INSPs will be able to be generalized.
