Paris Lees, the award-winning writer, TV personality, presenter, and equality campaigner, will explore the day’s significance at a panel discussion organised by the University of Brighton.
The university alumni will be joined by others at the “Women of Impact” event including award-winning businesswoman and diversity campaigner Miranda Brawn who received an honorary Doctor of Letters from the university last year.
Panellists will also reflect on their career paths and will discuss “how different aspects of a woman’s identity intersect with gender to affect their experiences in the world and the workplace”.
