International Space University, Illkirch/Strasbourg
In the context of International Women’s Day 2020, WIA-E Strasbourg organises talks and presentations with its members.
WIA-E Strasbourg will celebrate its members by showcasing the Amazing Women of its local group.
Several of them will host presentations and discussions on their current outreach work, their actions to challenge stereotypes, to fight bias, broaden perceptions, improve situations and celebrate women’s achievements. We will then exchange on how to engage in outreach activity, how to have an impact on younger generations and how to promote women’s empowerment.
