Gender & STEM Conference 2026

9 to 11 July 2026 | UNIPARK | Erzabt-Klotz-Straße 1 | 5020 Salzburg | Austria | Poster

We invite contributions to the 8th biennial conference of the international Gender & STEM network. The conference aims to advance understanding of the multifaceted and interrelated factors that shape gendered educational and career pathways in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics). These issues are gaining growing significance across a range of disciplines, each bringing distinct theoretical and methodological perspectives.

This interdisciplinary event brings together researchers, policy workers, and practitioners from fields such as psychology, education, sociology, and the various STEM disciplines. The conference seeks to foster theoretical and empirical dialogue, inform educational and organizational practices, and support evidence-based policymaking. It provides a forum to exchange ideas on diverse approaches, methodologies, findings, and intervention strategies related to gender and STEM.
