As a bookend/follow on from our week of features for International Women's Day we would like to share this exceptional #longread about the first female student at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) #womeninscience

We would like to take the opportunity to highlight & celebrate the extraordinary efforts, creativity, insight and sensitivity of Hannah Griffiths & Ashley Perl who are the masterminds behind the SRC International Women's Day #IWD2018 #PressforProgress set of features this week. Please join all of us in congratulating them on an exceptional job! They would like to share this about the experience: "We are extremely proud of this project and thankful that we were shown so much support all through the Centre. We were able to give our colleagues the space to reflect on who they are inspired by and why. Outspoken appreciation is a key way to strengthen the narratives of female role-models. Narratives which historically are rarely heard and often forgotten. We wish we had the chance to write profiles on all of our female colleagues here at the centre because this is just a fraction of the talent that we have.” – Hannah & Ashley

In this video for International Women's Day, we asked our staff to reflect on women that inspire them in their work and why, as well as the importance of including all voices in sustainability science.
