ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS WORKING ON GENDER ISSUES

Capstone Editing
Academic Mamas is a forum for mothers and women in academia to share their stories, with the
aim of closing the gap of gender inequality in academic institutions by exploring the reasons
behind our leaky academic pipeline. We aim to identify the challenges and opportunities facing
mothers in academia by using personal narratives that share a diversity of experiences, both
good and bad.

sherights Was born from a desire to raise awareness about women’s rights issues and news. Too often, these issues are swept aside and discounted as noise, or are filler for when “real” news isn’t breaking. Or worse, if they are addressed in the mainstream, they are often discussed in sexist, biased terms. sherights’ mantra is simple: women’s rights are human rights. When they are abused, disrespected or ignored, society as a whole is affected. Not just us women folk.
