In 2023, Spain led with 228.74 full-time equivalent female researchers in the electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply sectors. Germany followed with 199, and Italy had 62. Despite growth in Taiwan (10.32%) and Hungary (16.72%), Hungary remains one of the countries with the lowest female researcher representation at 13. Estonia and Chile saw declines of -6.51% and -2.68%, respectively. Over five years, the compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) indicated overall modest increases in most countries.
Looking forward, it's important to monitor initiatives that encourage female participation in STEM fields, regulatory shifts promoting gender equality, and global economic factors affecting sector-related job creation.
- Spain's leadership in this space might inspire regional efforts to further enhance female participation.
- The rebound of countries like Estonia, recovering from recent declines, needs attention.
- The steep growth in Hungary and Czech Republic should be supported with policies to sustain momentum.
