To celebrate International Women’s Day, we’re hosting a talk with author of the Forgotten Women series (launching on IWD), and UK Broadly editor, Zing Tsjeng as part of a two-part event series.
The second event in this series is a panel discussion focussed on forgotten female leaders from history. Zing will be in discussion with trans activist and author, Charlie Craggs and founder of Women Who and author, Otegha Uwagba.
This remarkable trio will be discussing what it means to be a female pioneer and exploring on some of the huge yet unacknowledged contributions from women in the past and present. This will be followed by an extended Q&A with the audience, and there will also be the option for those who can’t attend to live-tweet their questions.
This is the second event in a two-part series, which follows Forgotten Women: The Leaders at Waterstones Gower Street on Wednesday 6 March.
Tickets for The Scientists at Gower Street are £5. A select number of tickets for both events (The Scientists at Gower Street and The Leaders at Tottenham Court Road) are also available and are £12.
