Students are aware of gender inequality in Singapore through oft-sensationalised news in local discourse, but many of us still don’t have an idea of the big picture encompassing the issue’s pertinence. Not only that, more of us are unaware of our stake in it as the youth of today.
Our projected aims are twofold: to advocate for the objectives of SAMA Singapore in Raffles Institution (RI) and investigate how gender inequality manifests in RI. Both of these goals are set around the same outcome— to have every individual speaking up for and championing gender equality. SAMA RI encourages active discourse, and SAMA Singapore’s platforms on social media and websites share invaluable information to educate our audiences on gender equality causes nation-wide. Lastly, we hope to help raise funds for SAMA’s fundraiser to its goal of $10,000, 100% of the proceeds of which go to AWARE’s Helpline Fund.
