This year, International Women's Day focused on the theme 'Inspiring Inclusion'. At Warwick Medical School, we ran several events and initiatives to mark the day and celebrate those around us who inspire inclusion in what they do.

Role models for good

We asked the WMS community to nominate women who they feel represent 'role models for good' and were delighted with the response, with 18 women being featured on our internal channels during the week of International Women's Day. Staff and students can see who was nominated and the comments from those nominating them here.
