On the 16th of October 2018, I had the honour of addressing the Gender Network Quarterly meeting of WeAreTheCity on behalf of Founders4Schools. At that meeting, I outlined how members of WeAreTheCity were part of the solution to the talent crisis that is currently dogging so many aspects of our lives.
I asked We Are The City members to sign up to http://www.Founders4Schools.org.uk/partners/we-are-city/
1) to volunteer their time in classrooms and encourage all their employees and friends to do the same
2) to host 3 hours of work experience per annum &
3) to SHARE their examples of work experience projects that they found GREAT for girls so that we could get these examples into our guidance system.
It takes more than launching a training program here or there to support economic growth, business retention, and job
creation. Multiple stakeholders each offer critical resources, but too often don’t communicate or collaborate in a way that
maximizes impact and minimizes cost. This session will share approaches, tools, and data that will enable communities to
identify and leverage the range of community assets, and position people and skills as a key feature in regional economic development planning.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
