In conversation with Rebecca Wallace

In this episode I talk to my teacher, mentor and friend Professor Rebecca M. M. Wallace about her journey as the first female the first female law lecturer ever to be appointed at the Law Faculty (University of Hull) to becoming one of the most prominent international lawyers in the UK and beyond, and how she has supported, inspired and empowered many women along the way, me included!   
Rebecca is Emeritus Professor of International Human Rights and Social Justice at Robert Gordon University (Aberdeen).

What is The Professoriate?

Professor Olga Martin-Ortega talks to women, and people who identify themselves as women, in academia about their lives and work; the choices and decisions they made to get where they are; the women who inspired them and how to empower women at earlier stages in their academic development. The Professoriate is the 'body of college and university teachers at an institution or in society'. In this podcast we focus on the voices of women, who have had less representation and whose experiences have been often neglected in senior academic bodies.
