The awards recognise and support the scientific achievements, and contributions to society, made by women in Astronomy, in Africa.Senior research scholar at the University of Cape Town, Professor Renée Kraan-Korteweg received the Senior Award.
Kraan-Korteweg says she hopes the awards will inspire more young women to pursue a career in astronomy. “I was not just honoured, but very surprised when I heard that I was the first recipient of the Senior Award and it really is an honour and I would like to also thank all the team who have set this up. I think the primary goal is to showcase women in Astronomy and what they can do and hopefully, it will really encourage young women to continue or start a career in astronomy.”
