Academy CEO, Dame Tamara Finkelstein DCB has commented on today's launch of the women in research charter. Learn about the charter: www.gov.uk/government/news/improved…

Quote from Dame Tamara Finkelstein DCB, Chief Executive of the Royal Academy of Engineering, saying:
“We are pleased that the sector is showing its shared intent to address issues that have persisted for decades too long. We particularly welcome the initiative around data and transparency, which will enable the greater accountability of leaders essential required to take this to the next level. We also strongly welcome the Charter’s commitment to address the lack of trust in reporting mechanisms for harassment; organisations must work together to end this unacceptable situation.”
