United Nations’ Human Development Report

Policy attention throughout the life course should start by

focusing on:

1) ensuring quality education for girls and encouraging

participation in STEM programs;

2) equalizing opportunities for women in work and balancing

unpaid work between men and women (woman scientists

can spend time as much as men scientists for research);

and

3) expanding pension options for women to reduce poverty in

older age.
