The Breathing Room: Women and Gaming

Join the Women’s Leadership and Resource Center in the Breathing Room, a place to unwind, heal and find community. These casual Zoom drop-in sessions are open to everyone at UIC. We’ll start with the topic at hand and see where the conversation takes us!

March 30: Women and Gaming

Gaming is a fun outlet for women around the world. We gravitate to it for a variety of reasons: escapism, stress relief, competition, to express creativity or to challenge our minds. Although the number of women in gaming has been on the rise for many years, online gender-based harassment is still a reality for too many. This session will open a space for sharing stories of the good and bad, what we love about our favorite games and where gaming culture should improve.
