"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! My name is Nikol and I look after the Laidlaw Scholars Network.

I am originally from Kazakhstan and I studied Human Sciences at UCL. My final research explored the potential effects of design on patient wellbeing in hospitals, and I also took modules such as Ethnographic Documentary Filmmaking, Anthropology of the Built Environment, Art in the Public Sphere, and other less interesting-sounding things :)

Drop me a line if you have any questions about the site, or if you'd just like to chat! I am always down to meet interesting people, so let's get [virtual] coffee ☕️
