We have been featured this week in Nature Middle East as one of the global initiatives supporting women in STEM.
The feature by Prof Rana Dajani highlights grassroots initiatives led by Arab women like our founder Dr Ghina M. Halabi, Prof Hala Zreiqat and Prof Amal Amin to address the challenges facing women in science globally including access to role models, creating support networks, and influencing change at policy level.
We celebrate scientists as figures not only to look up to but also to identify with. That’s how we encourage fresh perceptions about science and success and help young people develop a positive self-identity.
