Join us in celebrating International Women’s Day 2025 by supporting women researchers at Dalhousie University’s Faculty of Medicine.
At Dalhousie University, we believe in the power of diversity to drive innovation. Yet, women in research often face systemic barriers, including unequal access to funding and resources.
The “Girls Just Want to Have Funding” campaign is designed to empower women researchers and amplify their contributions to the scientific community. This initiative celebrates International Women’s Day by raising critical funds to support women-led and women-focused research at Dalhousie’s Faculty of Medicine.
