What is Look Up and Beyond?
Look Up and Beyond is a collaborative project, founded by Naeema Yaqoob Sajid and Diversity+. Its goals are simple:
- to deeply study and better understand the limitations faced by women in the legal industry and beyond
- to work side by side with organisations to implement solutions to break down the barriers that affect female progression and retention.
​
Look Up and Beyond provides a gathering point for organisations to dedicate time and effort to achieving a better gender balance in the Scottish legal industry. Together, we will listen, raise awareness, challenge mindsets and ultimately remove obstacles piece by piece.
