Forces of nature: great women who changed science
Women have been historically under-represented in physics; progress is happening, but there is much work to be done. Systemic and cultural barriers still exist. Part of making positive change includes celebrating the contributions women have made to science, especially those women overlooked in their time. That’s why Perimeter Institute has created the “Forces of Nature” poster series.
Download them. Print them. Share them. Post them in classrooms, dorm rooms, living rooms, offices, and physics departments. Talk about these women. Share their stories.
Rebranding engineering for women
The E&T asked seven creative ad agencies to take a fresh look at how they might promote engineering to young women. The agencies then produced a number of poster campaigns, follow this link to see the posters that they created.
