Since 2012 the OWSD-Elsevier Foundation Awards for Early-Career Women Scientists in the Developing World recognize the achievements of researchers who have made significant contributions to the advancement of scientific knowledge.

The program promotes young talented women, supporting them to make the transition from science to industry, offering them an international stage at the FW Science Summit, and providing networks to help them be visible and recognized.

The aim of the partnership is to advance women, equality, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) in the science enterprise, promote gender-sensitive approaches to the implementation of all SDGs, and help make impact through collaborative actions.

Recognizing that success in STEM is driven not only by a combination of talent, motivation and access to a strong support network and opportunities, the RBS Awards support exceptional young Black scientists on their journey.
