In celebration of International Women's Day, 8th March 2022, members of the Cochrane Early Career Professionals Network collaborated with Cochrane US on a speed networking event for women in STEM. Members of the ECP shared their own personal stories of the value of mentoring, role modelling and networking before the group were given the opportunity to connect with others in three minute, quick fire slots.
The event was a resounding success with many new connections made by all. ECP member Dolly Sud said "really great event - proud to have taken part alongside such wonderful amazing women," with Elpida Vounzoulaki adding "the IWD event was really nice, so many inspiring women attending!" Anna Harvey said "as my first event as part of the ECP, I was made to feel really welcomed and comfortable to add my own ideas to the event."
We look forward to further networking and mentoring events run by the ECP and we would encourage female early career professionals to get involved with Cochrane.
