title: Diversifing Your Narratives
---
Role models play a crucial part in developing girls and womens interests, and this applies to many unrepresented subjectivities. The workshop provides participants throughout the history and evolution of both science and technology, with the aim of exploring their constructs but also highlighting the contribution of colonized peoples, women, LGBTQ*, and differently able.
**Overview**
1. Introduction
Explain main concepts and issues, give a couple of examples (ie. [Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorothy_Hodgkin#Honours,_awards_and_legacy), [Naomi Ceder](https://hackcur.io/gender-activism-in-hacking/) )
3. Warm-up
In turn introduce yourself and tell what is/was your role-model and why. (max 5 minutes per participant)
3. Discussion

4. Work group
