International Women’s Day takes places on the 8 March and is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating women’s equality. This year we’re proud to support the IWD 2022 campaign theme: #BreakTheBias. As the Faculty celebrates 150 years we take a look at the impact of colleagues and alumni who break the gender bias in Science, Agriculture and Engineering. SAgE will be hosting an event during the week commencing 7th March where will invite women who are helping to support the UN Sustainable Development Goals, working across national borders and academic disciplines addressing some of the most pressing development challenges facing the world today, to talk about their ideas, projects and the skills we need for the future. If anyone would like to be involved in the organisation of our 2022 event, or has any suggestions for speakers please contact Katy Sawyer |
