Women in Biodiversity Science
GreenMatter supports young Women in Science working and studying in the Biodiversity Sector in South Africa. One of esteemed Trustees, Shafika Isaacs has been awarded the Category of Woman in Education, as well as Woman of the Year Overall Category as part of the Women of Stature 2017 Woman of the Year Awards. We at GreenMatter are proud to be working with Shafika in educating and empowering young women in Biodiversity Science in South Africa.
“Woman of Stature’s mission is to empower, educate, upskill, connect and support women, and a significant component of this activity consists of raising money for charity in support of these objectives. We also honour those South African women who have made a considerable impact on the economy and within their respective communities in support of our objectives.”

In 2017, we at GreenMatter, worked with Shafika Isaacs, would like to celebrate Women in Biodiversity and Environmental Science. We celebrate our GreenMatter Fellows who are working and studying in areas related to the conserving our biodiversity and the environment. Some of our current GreenMatter Fellows who are Women in Science are showcased here. We wish them enormous success in their endeavours and encourage them to pursue large goals to create lasting positive impact on biodiversity conservation in South Africa and the world.
