  2. Introduction Wela was created with the sole purpose of showing women that Engineering is not just a male dominated field but that women can also excel in it. Wela is multi cultural and diverse group that consist of girls, students, working and aspiring engineers. Women that ascribe to join the program want to make a difference in their community and this can be done through the drive that all of these individual ladies have to succeed and conquer the Engineering Field. The program is structured in such a way that it develops each of the wela- ladies on an Academic, Personal and Professional level. During the course of the year we make it our aim to assist and guide the wela- students through their studies. This is done through various workshops, self defense classes, self development programmes and discussions.

  3. Logo The logo radiates the association’s initiative to change the engineering sector and establish a support structure for women in engineering. A metamorphosis from mechanical to organic shapes. The mechanical shape symbolises engineering, while the organic flower-like shape represents femininity. The logo symbolises the evolution of younger women, moulded by their mentors to grow into successful engineers. It also represents the evolution of an idea from the initial concept stages to the actual realization of an engineering project. The logo radiates the association’s initiative to change the engineering sector and establish a support structure for women in engineering. Wela is the Xhosa word for Change/transition.
