Peer learning
Study groups, technical clinics and shared problem-solving between cohorts.
Opportunities
Early notice of calls, grants, fellowships and events across the network.

“The WiW initiative not only built my capacity in quantitative analysis using Python but was also very inspiring - to have women who have accomplished great feats in the same room with you, teaching and sharing their experiences with you, is priceless!”
