Thanks to the fight against male domination, women have created networks among themselves, they have reflected on themselves, they have grown, they have asserted themselves. But the perhaps inevitably one-sided way of looking at the relationship between the sexes has led to a very dangerous misunderstanding, which now shows its increasingly serious consequences: in order to counteract the arrogance, women are unwittingly contributing to making men impotent.

The changing demographics of our modern society have inevitably impacted the dynamics and relationships within the home from being personal and private to that of multiple work relationships; domestic work, care for older people, or supporting people with special needs.

Women often find themselves strongly disadvantaged in the field of software development, in particular when it comes to open source. In a study recently published in EPJ Data Science, Orsolya Vasarhelyi and Balazs Vedres argue that this disadvantage stems from gendered behavior rather than categorical discrimination: women are at a disadvantage because of what they do, rather than because of who they are.

Flora wrote a paper on the gender-energy-poverty nexus. She argued that the energy transition can reduce poverty under the conditions that women are recognised as the main victims of both lack of energy access and poverty, that women are encouraged to be active actors of the energy transition, and that the wider complexities of the social and political contexts are taken into consideration. She took the concrete example of the Barefoot College to illustrate her point that women are agents of change.
