Description:
The WHPC Birds-of-a-Feather (BoF) session for 2023 will be a unique platform for participants to actively establish teamwork, get to know each other better through fun outdoor activities like never before. Participants will have a chance to team-up with others in a quest to “change the landscape of HPC” in South Africa.
As such, we are delighted to invite conference participants (male and females), to pick up where we left of the last session held during 2022 annual conference. The initiative's main goal was to create a network of Women in HPC in South Africa by bringing them together during the meeting. The workshop was sponsored and attended by both men and women, and strongly supported by the CHPC management team.
Anticipated Goals:
• Strong professional relationship
• Improve women's underrepresentation in HPC (Contribute in increasing the number of women and girls participation in HPC through training and networking)
• Share information and resources that foster growth for women in HPC (institutionally and across community)
• Raise our professional profiles
• Encourage young girls at school level to consider HPC as a career of choice
Target audience: Women and Men
