After the positive experience of 2022, this year 2023 we have launched as well a joint initiative between the Athena Community Office, the EU XMM2ATHENA project, the X-IFU and WFI consortia and the EU AHEAD2020 project to show the contributions of women to astronomy and astrophysics through a crossword puzzle contest.

We have received 25 crossword puzzles from various nationalities of which seven were correct. A raffle was held among these seven and the winner was Gloria Raharimbolamena.
