Action Required

As a member of the Equal Opportunity Committee at the University of St. Gallen (GK-HSG), since 2019 I have been trying to sensibilize colleagues on the importance of gaining a greater understanding of the determinants of the chronicle underrepresentation of women academics in economics departments.

I am grateful to James Davis and Reto Foellmi for giving me this opportunity; to Gudrun Sander, Margaret Davenport, and Beatrix Eugster for valuable input.
