Allies for Equity

Promoting efforts toward gender equity

Allies for Equity seeks to advocate for women through educating other IU (Indiana University) students about challenges that women in technology adjacent fields and disciplines face. Interns will run programs to educate and inspire other students in how to become allies and accomplices in helping dismantle systemic barriers to women. The team’s goal is to provide an opportunity for students of all genders to support and engage with the Center’s mission though exposure, advocacy, and practical application. Through involvement with this team, you will learn about the challenges of women as well as ways that you can leverage this knowledge and your identity to raise awareness and combat negative influences that perpetuate the male dominated culture in technology.

Men have the power to affect change, so come and join us as we learn about gender equity issues and how to be an ally to women.
