Join the Origin Papers Team for the Paper Trails Podcast, where the OP team comes together to try to make sense of society, culture, and identity. How do you make sense of the world around you? Our identities are shaped and changed by each time we see a new way of life. Each time we learn something new or unlearn something we know, our identities change. We sometimes struggle to find ourselves within ourselves, people and in spaces. Our imaginations are powerful tools for creation, learning to love, and accept each other. You can expect fun, jokes; maybe some tears too.

    Women Who Code: Vancouver

    Women Who Code started as a community group in 2011 when a handful of technologists decided they wanted to change the industry experience for women engineers. Since then, it has become a global non-profit organization and the world’s largest and most active community dedicated to inspiring women to excel in technology careers. One city at a time, Women Who Code spread around the world, reaching more than 20 countries.  Each city has its own unique culture and has seen local leaders rise to be both leaders of our movement and leaders of the industry, paving the way for the new face of tech. On today's episode we covered Women Who Code and the local Vancouver Tech industry.  WWC acknowledges a femme identifying role in the public sphere and work force and values their contributions, as well as examines whether or not womxn are credited enough (pay). The org fights for pay and diversity equity that demands womxn in masculine-dominated workplaces to receive similar salaries as their peers.  We chatted about the future aims to secure the rights, education, and benefits of femme identifying folx in Tech environments.
