Our Change Voices guest this week is Dr Zamambo Mkhize, a lecturer in Gender Studies at the African Gender Institute at the University of Cape Town. Having undertaken her Honours in Criminology and Master’s in Gender Studies from the University of KwaZulu-Natal, Zamambo also completed her PhD in Pennsylvania as a Fulbright scholar.

Author of “Polygyny and Gender” published in September 2021, her research focus includes African women in high-stakes degrees such as science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). Zamambo founded the African STEMinist foundation which is dedicated to supporting, mentoring and advancing African women in STEM fields.
