Organizing Women in Physics Working Groups

The creation and maintenance of women in physics working groups requires human resources, ideas, planning, and funds. Working groups facilitate the improvement of women’s situations in physics around the globe. Physical societies, which could help fund working group activities, financially support few working groups for women in physics. This paper presents recommendations and examples of best practices resulting from the workshop, Organizing Women in Physics Working Groups, presented as part of the Third IUPAP Women in Physics Conference, Seoul, 2008.
