Das Projekt ChanceMINT.NRW ermöglicht Einblicke in die berufliche Praxis, bereitet auf den beruflichen Einstieg vor und motiviert, selbstbewusst den Studienverlauf zu gestalten. Gemeinsam mit Partner*innen aus der Wirtschaft besuchen engagierte Studentinnen Großbaustellen, Kläranlagen, Planungsbüros und sprechen mit Expert*innen aus den Partnerunternehmen über Hürden, Erfolge und berufliche Herausforderungen. The ChanceMINT.NRW project provides insights into professional practice, prepares students for their career entry and motivates them to shape the course of their studies with self-confidence. Together with partners from industry, committed female students visit major construction sites, sewage treatment plants and planning offices and talk to experts from partner companies about hurdles, successes and professional challenges.

Gender Equality on a Grand Tour. Politics and Institutions – the Nordic Council, Sweden, Lithuania and Russia explores the politics around the establishment, development and transformation of gender equality institutions in the Nordic countries (on the example of Sweden), in the former communist countries east of the Baltic Sea region (the example of Lithuania) and in the northwestern part of Russia. The authors analyze the interplay between the internationalization and Europeanization of gender equality on the one hand and national and local contexts on the other. Gender Equality on a Grand Tour also is the first study to explore the role of one of the leading transnational actors in the region - the Nordic Council and the Nordic Council of Ministers - in gender equality institutionalization in the Baltic Sea region.

"Depuis la quatrième Conférence mondiale sur les femmes à Beijing, on observe une forte augmentation du nombre de personnes expertes en genre. Celles-ci circulent, tout comme les pratiques, les idées, les théories et les textes féministes qui voyagent sont interprétés, resignifiés. Des inégalités existent dans les processus d'élaboration, la circulation et la traduction des savoirs. Le champ social constitué par les expertes en genre est ainsi traversé par des rapports de pouvoir. La notion de colonialité du pouvoir et des savoirs permet d'interroger l'hégémonie et l'autorité universelle des discours et des savoirs occidentaux. Les contributions des études féministes pour revisiter le développement sont soulignées dans cet ouvrage. Ces apports, énoncés depuis diverses perspectives, s'inscrivent dans des espaces de contestation de l'ordre mondial, sont nourris de la prise de conscience des multiples rapports de domination et de l'émergence de nouveaux mouvements sociaux. Ils participent d'un processus de décolonisation de la pensée féministe. Avec la collection "Genre et développement. Rencontres", nous poursuivons le dialogue de savoirs sur les questions féministes et de genre, la construction d'alliances et de ponts entre chercheur-es, organisations féministes et de recherche, ONG, organisations de coopération, expertes, aux Nords et aux Suds. Les textes, écrits par des chercheur-es ou personnes actives dans ces initiatives sont publiés dans leur langue originale."--Page 4 of cover. Les contributions tentent une épistémologie des études sur le genre notamment en s'appuyant sur les recherches qui ont pour sujet le rôle de la femme dans le développement. Electre 2017.

The tropics surround the Equator limited in latitude by the Tropic of Cancer in the northern hemisphere and the Tropic of Capricorn in the southern hemisphere. The tropics include all the regions on Earth where the Sun reaches a point directly overhead at least once during the solar year. The subtropics are geographic and climate zones located between the tropic circle of latitude and the 38th parallel in each hemisphere. The tropics and subtropics are home to about 75% of the global human population. Cultural, economic, and political circumstances vary enormously across this vast geography of some 170 countries and territories. The regions not only harbor the world's poorest countries but their human populations are growing disproportionally faster than in temperate zones. Some countries are developing rapidly - Brazil, China, India, and Mexico being obvious examples, while others still remain in the poverty trap.This region contains an astonishing proportion of global biodiversity; some 90% of plant and animal species by some measures. Its contribution to human well-being is astounding. It was the birthplace for our species; and it hosts a myriad of plant and animal species which products feed us, keep us healthy, and supply us with a variety of material goods. The tropics and subtropics are also a natural laboratory where some of humanity's most important scientific discoveries have been made. Such biodiversity has enormous implications for research priorities, capacity building, and policy to address the challenges of conserving this region.Tropical Conservation: Perspectives on Local and Global Priorities drew the majority of its contributors from this growing pool of scientists and practitioners working in Latin America, Africa, and Asia. It introduces important conservation concepts and illustrates their application as the authors directly capture real world experiences in their home countries in preventing biodiversity loss and sustaining ecological health. Today, no part of the world can be viewed in isolation, and we further codify and integrate a range of approaches for addressing global threats to nature and environmental sustainability, including climate change and emerging diseases. Five sections structure the major themes.
