Current Projects
At Theory in Practice, our projects are driven by a deep commitment to exploring the practical applications of theoretical concepts. Below are some key initiatives we're currently focused on, each designed to bring our mission to life and reflect our core values.
Stories from the Community
At Theory in Practice, we understand that the most powerful insights often come from personal experiences. Our "Stories from the Community" project is dedicated to amplifying the voices of women in STEM who are applying theoretical concepts to navigate and overcome the unique challenges they face in their careers. These stories not only inspire but also provide practical lessons on how theory can be used as a tool for empowerment and change.

Why This Matters
These stories are more than just personal narratives; they are case studies of how theory can be put into practice to drive change. By sharing these experiences, we aim to create a community where women in STEM can find support, learn from one another, and feel empowered to apply theoretical knowledge in their own careers. This project aligns with our mission to bridge the gap between theory and practice and to foster a sense of connection and mutual growth among women in STEM.
