DEFENDING EQUITY

In this escape room we will travel through time, where you will have to reflect on the equIty between men and women in our scientific society. You will have to overcome different challenges that will test your knowledge, observation skills and your critical sense in order to reach the end.Escape room inspired by the #nomorematilda movement.

IMPORTANT ASPECTS BEFORE THE ADVENTURE STARTS

• We recommend using PC/Mac or Tablet whenever possible.

• Dim lighting and the use of headphones/speakers is recommended for total immersion in the experience. Try not to lose the musical background.
• Have paper and pencils ready, although it won't be the only thing you'll need.
• This is a cooperative game, communicate with each other.
• Write down all the keys because you will probably need them more than once. Do not lose them!
• Remember that you have 50 minutes to solve the puzzles.

Good morning dear friends,My name is Hermione and I am in charge of the Ministry of Technological Innovation. It is a research center in which only women scientists from all fields of knowledge of all times participate. We develop in this center new technologies aimed at improving life on our planet. We have built a time machine, but this week we have suffered a serious kidnapping. Four of our brilliant minds of all times were hidden, using our machine. We are unable to find them because we were left in the center, in the main room.We need the help of intelligent and brave young people to help us locate and free each one of the technological women of our time, and free us from the main room, before the history of science changes forever, so that their work as women in science is recognized.We have little time, CAN WE COUNT ON YOU?
