Really inspiring talk from Yvonne Ochoa Rosellini today CIMMYT, who reminded us that we are people and not our work, and who reminded me to thank Maribel Velazquez for promoting an informal outside work hike with our colleagues and families. Best team building activity ever!

We will all be more powerful and effective when female leaders are supported to be equitable participants in the diverse and holistic scientific organizations of the future, say Alison Bentley and Rachael Garrett nature.com/articles/d4158…

Congratulations Alison Bentley for this very well-deserved recognition! A true example of inclusion, and effective and accessible science communication. CIMMYT CAST

There’s nothing better than sharing some lab-made bread with friends and colleagues from the @cimmyt GWP. Thanks Anayeli for preparing the sandwiches and thanks Alison Bentley for organizing the coffee break!

Growing stronger with every season: a day in the life of our CIMMYT Women in Crop Science team working across a range agricultural research areas to drive forward science, to improve livelihoods & to achieve greater equality #IDWGIS Women in Science Day
