On February 11, the Faculty of Economics and Management at the Czech University of Life Sciences commemorated the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, which was proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in 2015 with the aim of highlighting the importance of the full and equal participation of women and girls in science, technology, and innovation. On this occasion, the Dean highlighted the significance of this day and thanked selected female researchers from the FEM-CZU for their work.
