DANWISE is a non-profit, volunteer-based organization that advocates for gender equality in the workplace and supports women across academia, industry, government, and the non-profit sector.
Our focus spans the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, and Medicine (STEMM), as well as the Humanities and Social Sciences.

-
Foster leadership and professional development to support women’s career progression and long-term success
-
Enhance visibility of women in senior academic and industry roles, promoting equitable representation and advancement
