A big highlight of this year was having the chance to lead stakeholder roundtable meetings to discuss how we can reduce gendered educational choices. Thank you to all the lovely people I got to meet and learn from, and of course to the RE-WIRING project for making all of this possible.

Do people judge and understand "Men are brave" like "Men are braver than women"? Will "Men and women are equally brave" be more convincing than "Men are as brave as women"? I just submitted my dissertation that showed that comparative formats matter. #KULeuven
