Women for Quantum (W4Q) is a group of female physics professors currently mostly based in Europe but also in Japan, working in the field of AMO physics (quantum optics, atomic and molecular), quantum many-body physics, and quantum information. All of us hold tenured positions and have more than 10 years of professional experience post-PhD.

We have observed numerous initiatives aimed at improving gender balance in our field and making our professional environment more welcoming to diversity.

However, we find that most of these initiatives are ineffective in achieving these goals.
