Positive Role Models
- Question
- What steps the Government are taking to provide positive models of the role of women in society.
- Answer
-
We have used positive role models very effectively, notably in science, engineering and technology. I recently spoke at the UK Resource Centre annual conference, which unveiled portraits of six inspirational women in science, engineering and technology, creating a legacy for future generations. The centre has also launched the GetSET Women database, providing access to thousands of female role models and mentors.
