Happy International Women’s Day
Happy International Women’s Day 2023!
Each year we celebrate UN Holiday honouring and celebrating women! We proudly reflect on the incredible role that women play in our lives and in our science. One way we choose to celebrate is by gathering Dept of Integrative Biology and GLIER communities together to share a lunch and dialogue exchange on barriers and facilitators to science and full participation by all. It’s hard to believe that this will be our fifth year of holding an IWD event!

Art as a tool for ecological restoration
