Annual award for women scientists
2016 award winners
The OWSD-Elsevier Foundation Awards for Early-Career Women Scientists in the Developing World are awarded annually to early-career women scientists in selected developing countries in four regions: Latin America and the Caribbean , East and Southeast Asia and the Pacific , Central and South Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa .[1] [2]
The Organization for Women in Science for the Developing World (OWSD), the Elsevier Foundation , and The World Academy of Sciences have partnered to recognize achievements of early-career women scientists in developing countries since the award was launched in 2011 as the Elsevier Foundation-OWSD Awards for Young Women Scientists from the Developing World .[3] [1] The award program is open to female scientists who live and work in one of 81 developing countries.[1] Nominations are generally submitted within ten years of the nominee earning a PhD .[4] [5]
The maximum number of recipients is currently restricted to five per year: one from each of the four OWSD-recognized regions, plus one additional outstanding candidate, and the awards are granted with a rotating theme annually among three general fields: biological sciences (agriculture, biology and medicine), engineering/innovation & technology, and physical sciences (including chemistry, mathematics and physics).[6] [1] There were six awardees in 2022 as two outstanding candidates were recognised.
As of 2014, the award included an honorarium of US$ 5,000, an entire year of access to Elsevier's ScienceDirect publication database, and an expense-paid trip to the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science , where the awarding ceremony is held.[4]
