References: ladieswinedesign
Creative Jessica Walsh launches a Women-in-Design initiative that advocates for a more diverse and inclusive representation of female workers and freelancers within the specific field. Simultaneously, the empowering organization is geared toward strengthening and fostering a meaningful and worthwhile connection between women that is free from competition.
Ladies, Wine & Design recognizes the small percentage of creative directors that are women and sets out to change this, whilst reshaping the way participants interact and approach one another through a series of constructive workshop, mentorship circles, portfolio reviews and meet-ups.
So far, the Women-in-Design initiative has proven to be largely successful, as its span grew to over 180 cities in less than two years of functioning.
