NAS celebrates Women’s month in style
August 2021 - NAS Women's Month profiles

Women come in all sizes, shapes and colours – just like their different opinions and views of the world. That is just one of the reasons why the Faculty of Natural and Agricultural Sciences (NAS) chose to celebrate Women’s Month by doing short interviews with a few dozen female staff members and students.

NAS WOMEN: Prof Paulette Bloomer, Deputy Dean: Teaching and Learning in NAS, shares her journey as a female leader on YouTube.
