Dear Colleagues,

We would like to invite you to an online diversity and inclusion seminar happening on March 18th at 1:00pm PDT.

About the event

The Department of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences (EOAS) at the University of British Columbia invites you to this diversity and inclusion seminar given by Dr. Patience Mpofu. Utilizing data collected for her soon to be released book, “Unleashing My Superpowers: Global Leadership Women in STEM”, Patience will present her ongoing work on how we can build diversity in STEM (with an emphasis on the geosciences) through understanding one another's values, drawing upon lessons from her life and other successful women in geosciences, both in academia and industry.

Key discussion points will include:

  *   How she navigated the male dominated workplace of science research and mining to succeed in a male dominated workplace as a woman in STEM (her personal story)
  *   Summary of results from a global survey and interviews where more than 100 women participated from across the globe, highlighting the major barriers that are sustaining gender inequality in STEM related professions and industries
  *   Summary of key strategies of how to tear down those barriers that are constantly holding women back to succeed in their STEM careers
