Inclusion & diversity is at a crossroads. Progress is being stalled, scrutinised, or reversed.

At the @rsc.org ID Forum, we united for action: bold talks, research & change making.

Do women belong in chemistry?

The numbers say YES—but barriers say otherwise 🚧

🔬 55.4% of A-level Chem students are women, but only 9% of professors are

⏳ Women take 15 yrs longer to reach professorship

It's not talent. It's bias, funding, & culture #TimeForChange

Socioeconomic inequalities limit aspirations & widen the education gap

Why are we avoiding this?🤔

⭐Exclusion: Underrepresented voices left out
⭐Disillusion: Frustration with no action
⭐Delusion: Key issues ignored
⭐Illusion: ID dismissed as "woke"
