Exploring Meaningful Allyship with Allison Jack

‘Standing out in some way is part of the journey of life.’ In this episode of My Race in Science, we explored the infinite value of self-belief, mentoring, and meaningful allyship in the fight against discrimination in the life sciences space. From sharing stories to speaking up for others – you don’t need to have experienced first-hand discrimination to be an impactful advocate. While diverse teams are starting to populate senior leadership positions, the persistence of the ‘Old Boys Club’ mentality still acts as a barrier to progression for minorities in today’s world, particularly for women of colour. How do we break the mould and inspire change, and what does that process look like? Part of The IN Group Communities, Race in STEM a safe, judgement-free space to share one another’s experiences and ideas. Together, we can challenge the status quo and showcase the excellence of the underrepresented in STEM.Keep in touch and find out more about RACE in STEM!
