Women in Geoscience and Engineering Special Session

'The Role of Women's Leadership in Securing a Sustainable Future'

Wednesday 7 June – 16:00 to 18:00 CEST

Where: Room Brasserie

The theme for this year’s Women in Geoscience and Engineering session is “The role of women’s leadership in securing a sustainable future”.

Once again, reflecting on the main theme of the EAGE Annual – “Securing a sustainable future together”, in this session, we will discuss the importance of inclusive and diverse ‘together’ in tackling global issues such as energy transition, and will particularly reflect on the role of women in leading the transition.

We will hear from the very accomplished leader in sustainability, Mikki Corcoran (SLB), the session’s keynote speaker. Mikki’s presentation will focus on driving equity in the workplace, supply chain and the communities that we live and work in to enable a just transition.

The presentation will be followed by an interactive session, where we will drill into some of the most common barriers that women face when entering the renewable energy sector & energy transition. We will collectively discuss the tools and solutions to overcome such barriers on an individual level, at the level of one’s workspace, and finally at the level of the society.
