Englische Kurzfassung:
Women are still strongly underrepresented in economics. Many young female researchers do not have the necessary contacts in their discipline that would enable them to assess the possibilities of pursuing a scientific career. They often do not have access to an experienced fellow scientist who could help reduce uncertainty or give concrete answers to specific questions about career or life plans. With the Mentoring Workshop we aim to give young female scientists a forum where they receive information on working in academia, and get the opportunity to discuss topics such as research strategy and life-work balance. In addition, there will be the opportunity for questions, exchanging ideas and experiences, as well as networking. This workshop was held as part of the annual conference of the "Verein für Socialpolitik".
