Women’s Month at UCT

For Women’s Month, the university’s focus is on celebrating womxn and womxn’s achievements.

UCT’s Women’s Day event

After two years of virtual events, this year we were able to celebrate Women’s Month in person again on 10 August 2022 at a luncheon hosted by University of Cape Town (UCT) Vice-Chancellor Professor Mamokgethi Phakeng. The event was in honour of the recipients of UCT’s For Womxn By Womxn research grants as well as other phenomenal womxn across the university. Gender activist Liberty Matthyse, who is the executive director of Gender DynamiX, delivered a keynote address themed “Yes, trans women are women”.
