| Description: | The “Wissenschaftlerinnen im Netz” (WiN) network at the University of Münster was set up in May 2009 to provide a web-based communication platform for all women involved in research at the university, whether students or early career researchers. This platform allows their members to share knowledge that is not publicly available as well as their own personal experiences of research. In addition to the information service, the WiN portal is designed to allow female researchers to communicate and establish partnerships for work on research issues. There is a setup of five communities: psychology, pedagogy, German language and literature, sociology and physics. Each community is supervised by researchers in the relevant field. The WiN network was established with funding from the Frauenförderpreis 2007. |
