Gender and the scissors graph of brazilian science from equality to invisibility

##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.sidebar##

Resumen

Las mujeres están subrepresentadas en la ciencia y su participación disminuye a medida que avanza la carrera; un fenómeno internacional que se muestra claramente en un gráfico de tijera. Esta disminución generalmente se atribuye a la maternidad, menor número de publicaciones y menor capacidad para recibir becas. Aquí presentamos un estudio integral del sistema brasileño de ciencia y tecnología, que abarca 8.877.626 personas, y analiza la participación de mujeres desde niveles de grado hasta ministeriales. El estudio utilizó diferentes bases de datos para desarrollar indicadores relevantes de la participación de las mujeres, algunos de ellos durante 15 años. Nuestros resultados sugieren que la disminución de mujeres a medida que avanza una carrera se debe a una combinación de barreras que deben abordarse y eliminarse para promover la equidad para una mejor ciencia.
