| Research Abstract |
The first aim of this project was to hold an International Workshop on Women in Science and Technology in Asia. We invited 9 researchers from Korea, China, Taiwan, Indonesia, and India to the workshop, which was held in Nagoya, September 29-October 2, 2006. The rather small size of this workshop which, including Japanese participants, involved about 20 members, encouraged attendees to engage in a free and frank discussion of the issues. Although the themes were broad-physics, medicine, the ICT industry, science in general, and science policies-the discussions were lively and positive. Prof. Torikai of Japan and Prof. Park of South Korea introduced some enlightening activities for high school girl students hoping to major in science and technology at university, which surely proved inspirational to the members from other Asian countries. Another fruit of this workshop has been the clear identification of emerging problems. One of these is a lack of sex-degenerated statistics. China and India, for example, are having difficulty in collecting correct data at the national level. In Indonesia, on the other hand, science for women is a much more urgent issue than women in science. Finally, the workshop has enabled us to put together a website reflecting our collective interests: http://www.wstna.org/.We believe this will be a useful tool in the development of our network in the future.
