Australian taxpayers pay for this woke nonsense! I would even say this is unconstitutional!
This is socialist central planning!
Science suffers when a gender quota is enforced! Mediocrity wins over meritocracy!
"“Over the course of this Centre, we seek to achieve a fraction of 50% females at all levels including the executive, the Advisory committee, and at all Centre sponsored events (including speakers), as well as equity in salaries and opportunities.”"
"ASTRO 3D is a seven-year $40 million Centre of Excellence project funded by the Australian Government through the Australian Research Council (ARC). The Centre began in June 2017 and will end in June 2024. Our Centre unifies over 250 world-leading astronomers to understand the evolution of matter, light and the elements, from the Big Bang to the present day. We are combining innovative optical and radio 3D technology with new theoretical supercomputer simulations on a massive scale, requiring new big data techniques." (Source)
