Young African students have become less motivated to continue studying science in school because of lack of role models in the science field. Even with the science laboratory practicals and hands on activities they are involved in, they have few career icons to look up to apart from their science teachers.

African students are in dire need of role models in the science field that will motivate them to pursue their chosen career path, a constant connection with scientists across their locality or world wide through our weekly science career talks on zoom from scientists from all around the world will help them expand their horizon to see the big picture beyond their class rooms and laboratories, this will in turn empower them to be the great scientists they aspire to become.

About Pandemic Professors:

The closure of schools that began in the spring has served to only widen the educational gap between economically disadvantaged students and others.

Growing up as a young woman in India’s patriarchal society comes with challenges on all fronts. Even in the 21st century, the story of every woman is entangled in discrimination and violence that has consequences to their freedom, aspirations, and mobility. Gender seems to be a dominant variable that influences the opportunities, potential, and safety of women and girls, universally.

But. All is not glum, women across the globe are raising their voices and demanding for justice, equality and rights. We at Milaan have witnessed this transformation and seen the power of young women to challenge the norms and attitudes that allow discrimination. Now, Milaan is stepping into yet another initiative to leverage the strength of the collective through ‘Rise for Her’- a community for women aimed to foster a nurturing space to convene, share and create social impact through a journey of self-transformation and learnings.

A 40-hour journey spread over one year, the initiative is aimed at women between 18-40 years of age to come together in a safe space to learn, share, connect and take action to promote gender equality.

The program has numerous and exciting workshops with experts, a chance to mentor girls in rural communities, and design impact projects to fundraise + campaign for advancing equality!
