The nuclear security community is in crisis; the COVID-19 pandemic threatens to erase hard won progress on gender equity and inclusion. Research conducted by Gender Champions in Nuclear Policy (GCNP) shows that the pandemic is pushing women out of the workforce – a challenge that will worsen with time. Direct action is needed to support gender equity and inclusion and safeguard the future of the community.
Join the International Nuclear Security Forum and the GCNP for a briefing on GCNP’s research and findings showing the gendered impacts of COVID-19 on the nuclear policy community, and a discussion of measures that can be taken to support gender equity and inclusion moving forward.
