Ashleigh Ratcliffe & Rosie Evans wrote a blog post presenting their booklet on how to improve gender diversity in maths: “Sharing of information, opportunities and networks is invaluable, especially to first generation PhD students and minoritised groups.”

The image shows a dark blue background with the Her Maths Story logo at the top. At the centre of the image, we have a rectangular graphic with light grey background, inside a rounded sage green rectangle, large dark-green text reads ‘What Can You Do?’ Beneath this, smaller text says: ‘A practical guide for those wishing to improve gender diversity in mathematical research.’ The top left shows the Piscopia Initiative and How to Train Your Allies logos. At the bottom corners are two cartoon-style characters: on the left, a light-skinned woman with long, curly, golden-brown hair, resting her chin on her hand and looking upward; on the right, a woman with medium-brown skin wearing a red hijab, also resting her chin on her hand and looking upward thoughtfully. Below the rectangular graphic, small text says: ‘by Rosie Evans & Ashleigh Ratcliffe’.

"Many who have never had an opportunity of knowing any more about mathematics confound it with arithmetic, and consider it an arid science. In reality, however, it is a science which requires a great amount of imagination." – Sofia Kovalevskaya (1850–1891)
