Over recent years, women's access to higher education has significantly improved, yet entrenched biases persist within academia, hindering their academic advancement and well-being. Despite achieving higher participation rates, female students encounter various forms of discrimination, from perceived incompetence compared to male peers to exclusion from group activities and discussions.
