In Her Element is a platform spearheaded by Hewlett Packard Enterprise—encompassing a range of initiatives—aimed at creating a more inclusive, equitable technology sector by championing female role models and telling their stories, inspiring girls to pursue their passions through STEM, and creating a community of support, learning, and advocacy. Help us break down barriers and challenge bias to create a more equitable world.
With more than 2 million women leaving the U.S. workforce in 2021, a trend that has since continued, it’s more important than ever to support women, talk about the challenges they face and champion their stories. Cultural and systemic change doesn’t happen overnight. Rather, it comes in the thousands of moments every day when we as individuals challenge gender bias and accelerate equity.
