Poruka za sve naše učenice, profesorice, majke, prijateljice - za sve žene:

“To be truly transformative, gender equality policies and programmes need to eliminate gender stereotypes through education, change social norms, promote positive role models of women scientists and build awareness at the highest levels of decision-making.

We need to ensure that women and girls are not only participating in STEM fields, but are empowered to lead and innovate, and that they are supported by workplace policies and organizational cultures that ensure their safety, consider their needs as parents, and incentivize them to advance and thrive in these careers.”

— Ms Audrey Azoulay, generalna direktorica UNESCO-a i Ms Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, izvršna direktorica UN Women, u zajedničkoj poruci povodom Međunarodnog dana žena i djevojaka u znanosti 2021.
