To mark International Day of Women and Girls in Science on February 11, and ahead of International Women's Day on March 8, the Cité internationale universitaire de Paris, in partnership with Arts et Métiers, is presenting the exhibition Technologie, nom féminin (Technology, feminine noun).
Created on the initiativeArts et Métiers, with the support of Elles Bougent and the Fondation Égalité Mixité, the photo exhibition Technologie, nom féminin (Technology, feminine noun) showcases 18 young female engineers who shared their unique career paths and their common passion for science and technology, captured through the lens of photographer Marion Gambin. From robotics to cosmetics, biomechanics, aeronautics, and virtual reality, they illustrate the diversity of professions and sectors open to all engineering school graduates.
"Technologie Nom Féminin" will be on display from February 11 to March 11, 2024, at three locations within the Cité internationale universitaire de Paris:
at the Maison des élèves ingénieurs Arts et Métiers 1 Avenue Pierre Massé, Paris 14th arrondissement), as well as in the park and on the gates of the Cité internationale universitaire de Paris, 23 Boulevard Jourdan in the 14th arrondissement of Paris,
Since 2017, "Technologie Nom Féminin" has been exhibited in numerous middle schools and high schools in France and abroad in order to break down stereotypes and help young girls pursue studies in science and technology. In 2023, it was installed by the 13th arrondissement town hall in Parc de Choisy.
