In 2023, the proportion of women researchers in higher education in Sweden stood at a certain level. Forecasted data from 2024 to 2028 indicates a slight but continuous decline in the percentage of women researchers. The year-on-year variation shows a marginal decrease each year, exemplified by a reduction from 44.48% in 2024 to 44.3% in 2028. The overall Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over these five years reveals a minimal average annual decline.
Future trends to watch for include potential policies or initiatives aimed at encouraging more women to pursue careers in research. Additionally, demographic shifts and changes in higher education funding could further impact these trends positively or negatively.
