How can gender perspectives contribute to new science and innovation strategies for inclusive and sustainable development? What do Inclusive Innovation studies bring to enlarge our understanding of gender equality and to promote more egalitarian societies?
In a provocative manner, this talk braids together science, materiality, power, and implicit gender visions to question the biases of knowledge and technologies that shape our daily lives and create exclusion dynamics.
Networks of expertise marked by participation and diversity -tearing down barriers between disciplines, between academic and non-academic actors, involving under-represented actors into S&T decision making-, becomes key to building more inclusive societies and addressing the pressing social and environmental problems of today.
