In 2015, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution declaring February 11, as the International Day of Women Scientists. The UN calls on states,
organizations and individuals around the world to promote the equal development of women in science and education. The UN hopes that the difference between men and
women in science will be eliminated and all branches of science at all levels will be accessible for women.
Georgian Academy of Agricultural Sciences congratulates the Georgian women scientists on this remarkable day and wishes them further success in their scientific research,
especially in the field of agriculture, overcoming the obstacles that are currently caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.
