Some subscribers to Math-Learn might be interested in a new petition
<http://bit.ly/QLN8Kz> in favor of GENDER BALANCE IN ACADEMIC
CONFERENCES initiated by Dan Sperber (Cognitive Science and
Philosophy, Central European University Budapest, and Institut Jean
Nicod, Paris); Virginia Valian (Psychology and Linguistics, CUNY
Graduate Ctr and Hunter College); and others as listed on the
petition.

They have established a website at <http://bit.ly/PsPfhM>.

In this regard, "Gender Issues in Science/Math Education (GISME)
[Hake & Mallow (2008)] may be of interest.

I thank Gloria Origgi (2012)
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gloria_Origgi> of the HoPoS-L list for
alerting me to this petition.
