Silverstone Museum announces expanded 2024 #GirlsWill initiative
The Silverstone Museum in Saudi Arabia kicked off the second season of the all-female F1 Academy with a month-long lineup of activities for this year’s #GirlsWill campaign. These activities, scheduled for October, include panellist events featuring female sports stars supported by More Than Equal and Girls On Track to celebrate International Women’s Day. The museum aims to highlight career opportunities in motorsport for women through educational workshops, responding to the recent report stating that only 31% of the Formula 1 workforce is female. Phil Lawrie, the CEO, expressed excitement for the 2024 #GirlsWill campaign and the museum’s commitment to women in STEM roles with exclusive events this October. Last year, the campaign garnered support from notable figures in the industry, and this year’s events will feature guest appearances from sporting stars and authors to further inspire women to consider careers in motorsport.
