    This study examines how international development and gender equality reinforce one another through the introduction and implementation of mechanisms to (1) promote women's engagement in scientific and technological advancements that hold potent promises for developing countries and the attainment of United Nation's (UN) sustainable development goals (SDGs), and to (2) orient more scientific activities toward promoting gender equality (SDG5). It addresses these two dimensions and answers three main questions: (1) to what extent scientific efforts are aligned with the achievement SDGs, (2) where SDG5 (Gender equality) stands in these scientific efforts, and finally (3) who is involved in the scientific advancements that contribute to the success of SDGs and SDG5, in terms of disciplines, countries, economies, and gender. The findings call for the need to support more research in relation to SDGs, particularly SDG5, which could potentially reinforce the engagement of more women in science from both developing and developed nations. The results of this study thus have great implications for both developed and developing nations and underpin the importance of cross-dimensional analysis, which is often overlooked in retention and inclusion policies of women in S&T. © 2021 18th International Conference on Scientometrics and Informetrics, ISSI 2021.
