Celebrating International Women’s Day 2019

Two of the most inspirational stories we've read this year follow the professional challenges and history of women in computer programming and big wave surfing.

Two of the most inspirational stories we’ve read this year follow the professional challenges and history of women in computer programming and big wave surfing. Read “The Secret History of Women in Coding” and “The Fight for Gender Equality in One of the Most Dangerous Sports on Earth” by the New York Times. For International Women’s Day, we’re blogging about these recent articles and celebrating the strength, resiliency and determination of hard working women.

More information about the Committee for Equity in Women’s Surfing can be found on the CEWS website and Instagram @surfequity. In case you already knew we take heavy interest in surfing and computer programming…. there’s more!

Women face unique challenges not only in the workplace and among their professional fields. Started in 2015 in response to the lack of diversity at their college in the UK, the gal-dem magazine (online and in print) is written by women and non binary people of colour. Visit gal-dem online and follow @galdemzine on Instagram.
