Here, at Women Love Tech, it is our mission to empower young girls and women to overcome gender biases and embrace careers in STEM. That’s why for IWD 2023, we asked trailblazing women to share their thoughts on this year’s theme, ‘Cracking the Code: Innovation for a gender equal future’.

One of these women is award-winning social entrepreneur and documentary-maker Liz Courtney. Liz educates and mobilises online communities for social and environmental change. She uses her 20+ years of experience in brand strategy and communication to lead the narrative on social change in the climate sector, with innovative digital and experiential content to inform community, government and policy planning on long-term solutions in high-risk regions.

In 2019, Liz became The Artist in Residence for The Earth Observatory of Singapore at Nanyang Technological University. During her tenure, Liz has written and directed Changing Ocean Asia, a 4-part series narrated by Dr Sylvia Earle.
