Hello!
We are the South Asian Women in Higher Education (SAWHE) Network, a safe peer support space for students and staff from South Asian heritage across UK Universities. SAWHE is a grassroots, community-led network, amplifying the visibility, voice and leadership of South Asian heritage women in the Higher Education sector through collective action, empowerment and support.
Network members, including students, have FREE opportunities to showcase their work, attend various FREE in-person and online events, and network with other South Asian women across Higher Education - again, for FREE!
You can sign up as a network member HERE.
You can also follow us on LinkedIn HERE (and we will follow you back!).
If you have any questions in the meantime, please do not hesitate to email us at hello@sawhe.org, and we would be more than happy to help.
We hope that you choose to join us on our exciting journey to represent and amplify South Asian women in Higher Education!
If students at Teesside would like to start a SAWHE community here at Teesside, contact activities@tees-su.org.ok
Kind Regards,
Rozena
