ProLOEWE presents: Many women, one mission: LOEWE cutting-edge research from Hesse – a photo campaign for the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, on February 11
Following the great success of last year's campaign, the ProLOEWE network is continuing its photo campaign for the International Day of Women and Girls in Science in 2026. Together with female scientists from the LOEWE-funded projects, we will showcase the diverse and prominent role of women in basic research in Hesse today – across a wide range of disciplines, roles, and career stages. The campaign aims to encourage girls and women to find their own path in science and, at the same time, highlight the importance of their perspectives for research and innovation.
The International Day of Women and Girls in Science was proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in 2015 and is observed annually on February 11. It recognizes the central role that women and girls play in science and technology and promotes equal access to education, research, and scientific careers worldwide.
UNESCO and UN Women coordinate the international activities surrounding this day together with partners from science, politics, and civil society. With our photo campaign, we are contributing to increasing the visibility of women in research – in Hesse and beyond.
