Abstract

The paper presents a study on the women in engineering in two Eastern Partnership countries – Ukraine and Moldova. Both countries were part of the former Soviet Union and gained independence in 1991 as the Soviet Union dissolved. Their recent history is marked by some conflicts and a war. The study aims to identify the dynamics of the involvement of women in engineering from the Soviet era, when women were encouraged to study science and technology, through the de-industrialization post-Soviet period, and through the impact of conflicts and war. The paper is part of a larger study, inspired by the Diversity and Inclusion Working Group in the International Federation of Automatic Control (IFAC); the study focuses on women in science and technology, particularly engineering, in different regions and countries of the world. The authors of the study search for common elements, specificities and trends, and aim to encourage the inclusion of more women and girls in the fields of engineering and technology.

东部伙伴国家工程领域的女性：乌克兰和摩尔多瓦案例研究

本文介绍了对两个东部伙伴国家--乌克兰和摩尔多瓦--工程学领域妇女情况的研究。这两个国家都曾是前苏联的一部分，1991 年随着苏联的解体而获得独立。这两个国家的近代史充满了冲突和战争。本研究旨在确定从鼓励妇女学习科学和技术的前苏联时代，到后苏联时期的去工业化，以及冲突和战争的影响期间，妇女参与工程学的动态。该论文是一项大型研究的一部分，由国际自动控制联合会（IFAC）的多样性和包容性工作组启发；该研究重点关注世界不同地区和国家的科技领域，尤其是工程领域的女性。研究报告的作者寻找共同点、特点和趋势，旨在鼓励更多的妇女和女孩加入工程和技术领域。
