Striving to narrow the gender gap in our country
As USACH’s Office of the Vice-President of Research, Development and Innovation, we want to contribute to the reduction of the gender gap that exists in Chile.
We are committed to gender equality in science, technology and innovation, because we know that it is one of the main challenges to improve the technological innovation and transfer in our country
