[J3] [EXTERNAL] (SC22WG5.6222) Fwd: [SC22] ISO Gender Action Plan Survey

[Damian Rouson]

“Not turning away” is not sufficient.  If it were, then any number of
deeply troubling imbalances that exist today would have been resolved by
now.  They haven’t been and any attempt to even get the smallest amount of
data relevant to the problem gets publicly ridiculed as “absurdly
irrelevant.”  Again... stunning.
