This phenomenon directly affects scientific productivity, a fundamental criterion for professional advancement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, they proposed <strong>concrete solutions<\/strong> to face these challenges: the implementation of affirmative actions, such as gender quotas; special programs with flexible schedules for scientists who decide to become mothers; mentoring systems, greater representation in scientific events, and alliances with men committed to equity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regarding public policies, Cruz highlighted that Jalisco has already legislated a care system that will initially include remuneration and <strong>support for caregivers<\/strong>, recognizing their contribution to the national GDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><picture>\r\n                <source srcset=\"https:\/\/tecscience.tec.mx\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/03\/Ana-acosta-colgate-palmolive.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\">\r\n                <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/tecscience.tec.mx\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/03\/Ana-acosta-colgate-palmolive.jpg\" alt=\"Ana acosta colgate palmolive\" class=\"wp-image-168311\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tecscience.tec.mx\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/03\/Ana-acosta-colgate-palmolive.jpg 750w, https:\/\/tecscience.tec.mx\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/03\/Ana-acosta-colgate-palmolive-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/>\r\n            <\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">&#8220;It\u2019s important to evaluate people based on their skills, not on biases or stereotypes,&#8221; said Ana Acosta, Quality and Technology Manager at Colgate-Palmolive in France. (Photo: Alejandro Salazar \/ TecScience)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New Generations and Call to Action<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the highlights of the panel was a discussion on <strong>how new generations are more aware of gender biases.<\/strong> Sen\u00e9s shared: &#8220;We received a complaint from students because a professor was mansplaining what his female colleague had just said. These are 18-year-olds who detect it immediately, and that gives me hope.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The panel concluded with a <strong>call to action<\/strong>: transform institutional structures, make biases visible when they occur, and recognize that scientific talent has no gender. As Acosta stated: &#8220;It is important to evaluate people for their abilities, not for their prejudices or stereotypes.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The full participation of women in science and technology is not only a matter of social justice but a necessity for scientific advancement. The panelists emphasized how diversity of perspectives is fundamental to building stronger and more inclusive science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><picture>\r\n                <source srcset=\"https:\/\/tecscience.tec.mx\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/03\/Larisa-Cruz-Ornelas-y-Paloma-Vargas.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\">\r\n                <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/tecscience.tec.mx\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/03\/Larisa-Cruz-Ornelas-y-Paloma-Vargas.jpg\" alt=\"Larisa Cruz Ornelas, y Paloma Vargas\" class=\"wp-image-168313\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tecscience.tec.mx\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/03\/Larisa-Cruz-Ornelas-y-Paloma-Vargas.jpg 750w, https:\/\/tecscience.tec.mx\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/03\/Larisa-Cruz-Ornelas-y-Paloma-Vargas-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/>\r\n            <\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Larisa Cruz acknowledged that unpaid domestic and caregiving work falls primarily on women and that policies should address this issue.
