Stream: Women in IT
Time: 12:00 - 13:00
Expect fun. Expect frustration. Expect to think hard and engage in intense discussions.
...Expect to be talking about this for a while afterwards.
The session is a facilitated group activity. It’s designed to highlight issues around who gets to be born into a life where things may be a wee bit easier in the current UK culture (because you’re athletically gifted, or male, or straight, or white, or whatever), and who gets to be born into a life that may require more effort to get anywhere (because you’re female, or different from the mainstream, or aren’t around a lot of people similar to you, or didn’t inherit the “charming conversationalist” gene, or are disabled, or whatever).
The session is about learning. About seeing things from a different perspective. About taking a walk in someone else’s shoes. Expect all sorts of stuff to come up.
But in a fun way. (That’s code for: we don’t do man-bashing, blaming “society”, or trying to embarrass people. You know me: I’m a loved-up tree-hugger.)
Everyone is welcome. The more the merrier!
Materials required: An open mind. Something to write with. Maybe some paper.
