Just Looking Differently Isn’t Enough
"Just looking differently isn’t enough. You need to do things differently."
In 2016, Priscila Gama founded Malalai Tecnologia de Segurança - an app that helps women in Brazil feel safer on the city streets, which won WeWork's Creator Awards in São Paulo. Gama was inspired by the many female voices on social media that raised awareness about the abundance of sexual harassment & violence in her local area, so she took matters into her own hands to help women (and men!) feel safer in public spaces.
Hello! I am a multidisciplinary designer and have been with the Laidlaw Foundation for over five years, working to strengthen our global Scholar community and amplify the impact of our programmes.
My work lives somewhere between design, education, and anthropology, usually with sticky notes involved. I studied Human Sciences as an undergrad and am currently doing a Master’s in Anthropology at UCL. Degrees I struggle to explain at parties.
Born and raised in Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 Outside of work? Probably in the ceramics studio, wandering aimlessly with a podcast in my ears, attempting a handstand, or watching far too much TV. Big fan of nature and very small bugs.
