Abstract

Her Maths Story (hermathsstory.eu) is a platform portraying stories of women in mathematics in all walks of life. Motivated by the lack of women role models, Her Maths Story strives to bring light to the variety of careers, non-linear paths and individual decisionmaking processes of women mathematicians in today’s society – mathematicians like you and me. The purpose of this platform is to encourage and empower women to pursue studies and careers in maths, spark their curiosity and transmit enthusiasm for technical subjects.
