POAS ❤️ ZAU Campaign

07.12.2019

POAS joins to improve women and girls’ status as well as prevent dividing jobs to “men and women’s jobs”. Instead of sending Christmas cards and gifts, we have donated the money to ZAU campaign.

The ZAU Campaign, which will commemorate the 100th anniversary of Zonta International, aims at attracting the interest of girls in mathematics, science and technology-related studies and correcting the distorted division into men’s and women’s work. As a result, the worth of a “woman’s euro” will be increased in the future.

The clubs of ZI District 20 implement the campaign in 2018–2019 through collaboration with LUMA Centre Finland. This network of universities aims at inspiring and encouraging children and young people – our “future makers” – to take interest in and study mathematics, science and technology with the help of the latest innovations in science and technology education.

POAS operates in real estate and building management industry which usually has predominantly male employees. We employ 18 full-time employees and 8 of them are women.

Zonta International is an international service organization with the mission of advancing the status of women. Zonta International seeks to provide opportunities for women through a number of educational programs and awards.
