Women in GRSS at M2GARSS 2020
At the M2GARSS 2020 conference in Tunisia, a Young Professionals (YP) and Women in GRSS (WinGRSS) mixer was held. The mixer was a great opportunity to bring researchers of different nationalities and ages together and build a networking forum for sharing ideas and experiences. Organizing the mixer with the GRSS YP team added a special perspective to the event, shedding light on the position of young women researchers and engineers in the geoscience and remote sensing field in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, the challenges they are facing, and strategies to overcome such challenges and build a successful career.
