Improving the experiences and numbers of women in science will require each country to work with representatives of all science actors from the lower levels of education to the advanced research levels to define a holistic approach that will address the deep-rooted inequities in science representation. Some baby steps have been taken. What remains now is to adopt the good practices at a wider scale and address the remaining challenges by harnessing the learnings from GoFoWiSeR2019 along with other knowledge.
