On 2 July 2024, the Director-General of the United Nations Office in Geneva, Ms. Tatyana Valovaya, opened a photo exhibition entitled "Not a Woman’s Job?: Changing Faces of Science and Tech".

Bulgaria ranked high among the countries encouraging the participation of women in science and technology, by participating in the photo exhibition with photographs of two Bulgarian women scientists - Assist. Prof. Gergana Georgieva and Dr. Zornitsa Rusinova.

Assist. Prof. Gergana Georgieva initiated in 2014 the installation of the first Bulgarian Antarctic seismic station. Since 2015 she has lead scientific projects for seismicity and glacier movement in Antarctica and is member of five National Antarctic expeditions. She maintains the seismic station and makes the seismic and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) measurements on the glacier surface.

Dr. Zornitsa Rusinova is a young surgeon working at the Burgas „Heart and Brain Hospital. She employs innovations for top-tier treatment and is among the few women trained in bloodless robot-assisted surgery with the innovative DaVinci System. DaVinci enables precise and safe laparoscopic surgery.”

The photo exhibition initiative is part of the Perception Change Project jointly implemented by the United Nations Office in Geneva, the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and aims to highlight the vital roles of women, to celebrate and amplify the voices of women who dare to lead, innovate and overcome barriers in science and technology, challenging outdated perceptions and inspiring a new generation.
