Women 4 STEM Move the Needle Series - Intersectionality Revisited

Join Women 4 STEM in the fourth and final of our 'Move the Needle' Events. Proudly sponsored by Robert Half.

In 2024, Women 4 STEM were a proud partner of the Work Well Respect Network, its aim to reduce and eliminate gender-based violence. Today, they continue the conversation by bringing together past participants and industry leaders for a four-part event series designed to turn insights into action. These series provide opportunities for accountability, knowledge-sharing, and meaningful conversations about driving real change in STEM & Hospitality workplaces.

In this face-to-face discussion we will be revisiting the key elements of intersectionality and what you and your workplace can do, to create a safe and inclusive workplace free of gendered violence. 

This will be a catered Luncheon event.
