I am Mariea Dixon, Vice President of the IGDS Guild Committee. I am currently enrolled as a second-year student at The University of the West Indies, in the BSc in Gender and Development Programme. This programme has enabled me to examine and challenge social norms around what it means to be a woman, or a man in society, and to pursue justice and equality for all.
Motivated by my love for learning and succeeding, I strive to become an outstanding and successful woman in today’s society by making a lasting impact in my field. I encourage fighting for what you desire and believe in, and doing it through God, because nothing great comes easy and with God all things are possible.
