Congress of Women in Natural Sciences and Technical Professions
held each year in Germany, Austria or Switzerland
Congress FiNuT? What's that?
Each year at the weekend around Elevation (May/June) a four days
congress takes place, which
is organized by and for women in natural sciences and techinal professions.
The topics span from interchanging experiences over specialised speeches to
political discussions. The femal visitors come together from all germanspeaking
countries and often above that. The spectrum spans from schoolgirls to
retireds and from university professor to craft persons. In the last years
each time 300 to 600 women came together, providing around 100 events
(speeches, workshops, excursions). Around the congress there are manifold
opportunities to come together, get to know each other and to celebrate.
Organisation
The Congress was founded 1977 in Aachen, and in the beginning took place
twice a year, later on yearly, in changing cities. The preparing group
is found within the congress two years ago. It is organizing the congress
on its own, bound only to the decisions made in democratic fashion on
the former congresses.
English speeches are highly welcome. If interested, just contact the current organisation group!
