Abstract:	It is on the political agenda of most countries to diffuse learning as much as possible. Programs to attract girls to science are becoming increasingly popular. Indeed in most European countries there are as many women obtaining a first degree in science as there are men. Are governments investing so much in girls just to ensure that the mothers of the future generation will expose their children to scientific knowledge before and during their school life? Shall the current governments and companies not gain immediately from facilitating the integration of qualified women into the research force perhaps by offering them short induction periods of training?
