On this year’s #InternationalWomensDay, SBRC put together powerful quotes from dynamic women shining in the field of STEM. We wanted to amplify the social noise around women smashing stereotypes and effortlessly breaking the glass ceiling in the field of tech and cyber!
A significant gender gap has persisted throughout the years at all levels of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) disciplines all over the world. Even though women have made tremendous progress towards increasing their participation in higher education, they are still under-represented in these fields. – Full and equal access and participation for women and girls in science, UN
We wanted to revisit the inspiring quotes shared, and remind ourselves that women who are role models and working on breaking the cycle of stereotypes in any and every field that does not portray equal participation, should be celebrated everyday.
It’s a known fact that equality brings the power of choice, and more #women than ever are choosing an exciting career in the field of #Tech/ #Cyber to #BreakTheBias
Our first powerful quote of the day was by SBRC’s CEO, Jude McCorry, who is leading by example and is an inspirational leader in the field of #STEM
Imagine a world free of bias, stereotypes and discrimination, a world where equality was celebrated and not questioned.
Here’s a thought-provoking quote by Ciara Mitchell, Head of Cyber, ScotlandIS, that makes you question the preconceived notions & unconscious biases we all live with.
In order to achieve a fair and gender equal society, we all need to work together and unlearn the stereotypes and biases.
Carole Wyllie, Police Scotland Constable & Business Resilience Advisor Scottish Business Resilience Centre shares about being a working mum.
The landscape of #STEM, and the role women play in the field, is changing as rapidly as the rest of the world, and barriers to entry are lower than ever.
Kirstie Steele, Cyber Resilience Community Lead, Scottish Business Resilience Centre, shares the time for women to work and lead in the field of #tech is now.

Did you know women and girls represent half of the world’s population and, therefore, also half of its potential?
Edina Balko, Head of Operations, Scottish Business Resilience Centre, shares how important it is to recognise how far we’ve come in the world of #women‘s rights.
Gender equality, besides being a fundamental human right, is crucial in achieving world peace, and creating fairer societies.
Janka Hudak, Project Manager, Scottish Business Resilience Centre, emphasises on the significance of empowering others in the journey of equality.
Recognising the contributions women make in the field of tech is as important as making efforts towards building an equal society without any barriers and biases.
Gillian Carmichael, Business Development & Membership Manager, Scottish Business Resilience Centre, shares about her experience of working with #women leaders.
Is it true that women and girls continue to be excluded from participating fully in #STEM?
If you believe this to be true, do your part today, and support the #women around you who may not have the right guidance – Ashleigh McCloskey, Marketing Manager, Scottish Business Resilience Centre.
Not only today, but everyday of the year, we must recognise, acknowledge and celebrate women’s contribution to the furthering of our society.

Even though women and girls participation in the field of higher education has increased tremendously over the years, they are still underrepresented in #STEM

Do you agree that empowerment of #women and #girls in #STEM will make a crucial contribution to the field itself?
We strongly do.
Allena Matheson-Dear, Third Sector Project Administrator and Ethical Hacker, Scottish Business Resilience Centre, reflects on the imp of breaking the bias!
We’re all aware that radical developments in engineering and science have dramatically changed the face of the world we live in, but can we say the same about women’s participation in STEM?
