Election post
Hi everyone, I am Natalie, an undergraduate student.
As Women's Students' Network Campaigns Representative, I will:
- Advocate for women's rights and safety by leading campaigns against gender-based violence.
- Promote inclusivity through workshops, panels, and networking events that amplify women’s voices.
- Secure more funding for women’s societies and ensure free period products remain available on campus.
- Expand career opportunities by organising career fairs, connecting female students with inspiring professionals and potential employers.
I will bring strong organisational skills from my experience in organising large-scale conferences and volunteering events. Through female-focused programs at finance firms, I understand the challenges women face in male-dominated industries. My 4 years at a girls’ school experience deepened insight into the barriers women encounter in STEM, equipping me to drive the change. My bilingual proficiency in English and Chinese enables me to bridge language gaps and foster communication. Most importantly, I’m passionate about creating inclusive social opportunities for all female students.
This past year as Female Student Campaigns Representative, I've delivered on my promises—advocating for women's safety, promoting inclusivity, and expanding career opportunities. With proven experience in campaign organisation, cross-cultural communication, and advocacy, I know how to turn ideas into action. I will ensure female students’ voices are heard and their concerns addressed. By voting for me, you are choosing someone who not only values efficiency and collaboration but also brings a global perspective to drive positive change for all.
In 200 years, I believe UCL will have fulfilled its founding promise of accessibility—not just across borders, but across all barriers. I envision a UCL where gender equality is so deeply embedded that a Women's Network as we know it today might no longer be necessary, because its goals will have been achieved. Campus will be a truly inclusive space where women from every background lead and thrive, and the concept of "male-dominated fields" will be a historical footnote.
