Time for a COP creche? Or mentoring by women negotiators to help others succeed? This and so much more is surely needed to tackle deeply entrenched gender biases, not just in UN climate talks but all global forums.

Gender gap in maths emerges after just four months of schooling in French study. A lesson for #education systems in every country.

Rapid emergence of a maths gender gap in first grade - Nature
Boys and girls exhibit very similar maths scores upon school entry, but a gender gap in favour of boys becomes highly significant after 4 months of schooling, which increases with years of schooling, independently of age.

'For our oceans to survive, we need sharks.' Yet 274,000 of them are killed each day. That's 100 million a year. An 'ecocide'. Fascinating conversation with @lewispugh.bsky.social and @ingerandersen.bsky.social at #UNOC3. Another stat: it's 50 years since Jaws.
Tune in as UNEP Patron of the Oceans @lewispugh.bsky.social joins UNEP’s @ingerandersen.bsky.social at #UNOC3 to discuss the threats and the solutions to protect marine life, #BeatPlasticPollution, ocean finance, and more.
