Highlighting the importance of women in the college and with strong support from the Gender and Development (GAD) Office, the university organized a Women Empowerment Initiative focused on Cybersecurity.
Dr. Enriqueta Siva, GAD Director, graced the event, emphasizing the vital role of women in organizations. She inspired participants by addressing the persistent stereotypes in the cybersecurity industry and underscoring the significance of the activity in light of recent cyber incidents.
