Question 17246 — 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 third recommendation is the installation in each ESPE of a representative for questions of equality between girls and boys based on the model of equality officers existing in universities. The fight for real equality between men and women must be waged at school. However, the report presented by Ms. MP and Mr. MP Stéphane Viry demonstrates that school produces inequalities through its way of considering girls and boys. Young girls are less encouraged to follow a scientific course. For to deconstruct these stereotypes it is important to raise awareness among teachers. This is why she asks him if within future INSPs, a referent on issues of equality between girls and boys will be set up.
