Women Win

🎞️ Watch this weekend ➡️ CATEGORY: WOMAN Women in international sport experience the policing of their bodies, gender discrimination, questioning of their identities as women, and more. 'Category: Woman' is a film that exposes over 100 years of sex testing, highlighting contemporary stories of remarkable athletes whose lives and careers were destroyed by harmful regulations. But their passion to compete was emboldened as they stood up for their rights in the face of oppression. 📼 Watch here: https://lnkd.in/daxu5wxi A percentage of your rental will support Humans of Sport, an organisation that equips athletes with the tools to secure their livelihoods, remedy injustices, and change the realm of sport. 🏃♀️➡️ 🎬 Trailer here: https://lnkd.in/eY7pZ7NY

As we continue running the EmpowerHer STEM program, one challenge has repeatedly stood out: the lack of adequate school science labs and computers in public schools. Students often struggle to conduct experiments due to poorly equipped labs, while computer access remains limited, restricting their engagement with STEM subjects. In a meeting yesterday with the teaching fraternity at Wangige Secondary, it became clear that many students are not intentional in how they combine subjects. Some choose subjects because they’re “easy” or because a sibling took them. This highlights the need for increased advocacy, especially in public schools, to help students make informed choices. I was also recently contacted by the principal of Farasi Lane Secondary School in a neighboring subcounty, who heard about our STEM project and requested we run a similar initiative there. Like many schools, they face a shortage of lab equipment and computers—resources essential to providing hands-on learning in science and technology. The teaching staff at Wangige Secondary has expressed willingness to collaborate on sustaining the momentum of the STEM program, even after our project ends. We are incredibly grateful to Women Win for making this possible. Without their support, we wouldn't have uncovered these pressing issues in detail. It’s clear that much more needs to be done, and we are committed to continuing this journey. Let’s advocate for better resources so that all students can fully engage in STEM and reach their potential.
