Hello All,
We know that "a picture is worth a thousand words", and art can reach us on levels that other communications fail to do.
This week I'm sharing a link to a series of three posters created in 2017 as part of a campaign to highlight how few women (about 23 %) were part of the workforce in Egypt at the time.
These stunning posters are part of a larger collection focused on Women's Rights as Human Rights. In particular, look at Finding women in [technology / politics / science] shouldn’t be this hard.
Only 23%.
That's not much below where we are now with women in technology in the U.S., with some variation in industry sectors.
Not enough, not proportional, not fulfilling the promise of a country where all are guaranteed life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
As you celebrate our nation's independence, consider how we can make those words from our Declaration of Independence ever more real for women.
Thanks for everything you do,
All the best, Holly
