Cybersecurity specialist, accessibility advocate, BRICS gold medallist, and one of the most honest voices to sit across from Hlulani on this platform.This time they are in the same room, and the conversation goes everywhere.From getting dirty in a primary school in Welkom teaching kids to use AI for grief support, to facilitating cybersecurity training for human rights defenders at the UN, Precious is doing the kind of work that does not make the LinkedIn highlight reel but changes lives anyway.They talk about what corporate spaces get wrong about neurodivergent employees, why Precious stopped trying to change the rooms that would not listen, and what it actually looks like to build inclusive tech from the ground up rather than waiting for permission.In this episode:Why accessibility advocacy only made sense once Precious went hands-on in communitiesWorking with UN Women to protect human rights violation records safelyCompeting solo at the BRICS Skills Competition in Russia and taking third placeWhat corporates get wrong about autism and ADHD in the workplaceWhy Precious stopped advocating in implementation rooms and went straight to policyDocumenting African art and knowledge before it disappearsBuilding a virtual reality fitting room for wheelchair usersSupport the show buymeacoffee.com/shetalkstech#SheTalksTech #WomenInTech #GirlsInSTEM #WorkCulture #AfricaTech Hosted on Acast.
