Navigating the Labyrinth of Discrimination: A Call for Inclusion in Academia | Plantae
Discrimination is not a new topic, we hear it on the news, we see it on social media, we have -hopefully- talked about it with our peers in conferences or during lunch. It might sound even repetitive.

Very good words about a very important topic. I have personally experienced genuine gender discrimination many times. This may seem funny, after all, I am a white male from Europe. Unfortunately, in my country, but also throughout the European Union, the issue of women in science is excessively raised, which is of course extremely important, but it often leads to open discrimination against men, I have heard many times that there is no place for me in the team despite the high substantive assessment of me because places are for women, preferably for women from outside Poland/Europe. Sad but true. I appealed against the decision, reported scandalous statements to higher authorities, but unfortunately there was nothing I could do, no one cared. It’s worth talking about because discrimination affects everyone, not just minorities.
