This week, a group of TechWomen fellows in Ramallah came together to co-organize Women Tech Talks, an event featuring local women business leaders, founders and entrepreneurs. The day’s program was organized in partnership with Birzeit University and the Palestinian chapter of ArabWIC, an initiative that supports and encourages Arab women in computing.
2018 fellows Gina Kadri, Hanan Atallah, Zeina Sadeddin, Nuha Shawahna and Waad Jabbarin were joined by Razan Qraini and Ruba Awayes (2017) and Yamama Shaka’a (2016) and Ayah Soufan (2015). Together, they gave a presentation to students and graduates about their TechWomen experiences and also participated on a panel to answer questions about the program and speak about how it has impacted their careers in tech.
