JIVE National Conference 2007
The final JIVE National Conference will took place on 30 October 2007, at the National Motor Cycle Museum in Birmingham.
This year’s conference was a free event that showcased the work of JIVE and mainstream good practice to ensure women are able to contribute fully to the science, engineering, and technology sectors.
JIVE's key messages were the theme of the conference:
- Change doesn't happen by itself - action is needed at all levels to make a difference.
- Employers can change practice; it makes business sense to do so
- The UK can't afford to waste the talents of half its workforce
- The door to Science, Engineering, Technology and the Built Environment should be open to young women from an early age
Nearly 200 delegates from the following areas:
- Employers in SECT
- Learning Providers
- Careers Organisations
- Gender and equality policy makers
- Those interested in supporting girls and women to pursue SECT careers
- Head teachers
- Lecturers
- Women working in SECT
- Learning Skills Councils
- Chambers of Commerce
- Regional Development Agencies
took away ideas and practical solutions to help address gender inequality practices, recruit and retain high quality female staff and implement good practice in the workplace.
