PM @[email protected] @pashadag.bsky.social Camille Marchet @[email protected] OfficialSMBE Providing childcare, which we have done for over 15 years now, has been a real game changer for our society, OfficialSMBE. More women and more parents in general can participate in our annual meetings, including academic couples working in the same field.🤱🏾👨‍🍼👶

PM @[email protected] @pashadag.bsky.social Camille Marchet @[email protected] OfficialSMBE At our conference in Ferrara ( #smbe2023 ) we had 70 kids in daycare and gave about 80 caregiver awards. The conference had 1600 participants.

PM @[email protected] @pashadag.bsky.social Camille Marchet @[email protected] OfficialSMBE indeed provides childcare. (1) We require the Local Organizing Committee to have childcare for kids 6 months-10 years at the conference venue (free to parents). (2) we provide caregiver grants (up to $1-2k per conference participant) to anyone who needs it.
