The Gender Summit (https://gender-summit.com/), created in 2011, is a platform for dialogue where scientists, policymakers, gender scholars and stakeholders in science systems examine new research evidence showing when, why, and how biological differences (sex) and socio-cultural differences (gende) impact on outcomes. The aim is to reach consensus where improvements to science knowledge and science practice are needed and who should take action.
