ORGANIZATION
WiF members
Women in Fusion was established following the 2021 IAEA’s Fusion Energy Conference (FEC2020), which included a widely viewed webinar on the need to increase the representation of women in fusion science and research. (Women in Fusion at FEC 2020 – YouTube).
The reactions to the webinar were powerful – and clearly showed the need for more representations at key events on this topic.
