In Breaking The Ice Ceiling: Women In Antarctica, we'll discuss the history of female endeavour and achievement in Antarctica. Join us on the eve of International Women’s Day to hear about the “ice ceilings” that our incredible guests have already broken, find out about UKAHT's all-female team at Port Lockroy, and look ahead to the future and the boundaries that are yet to be broken.

Once inaccurately labelled the “Womanless Continent”, Antarctica has seen groundbreaking science and record-smashing achievements by women scientists and explorers. One is our host for the evening, UKAHT’s own Head of Operations Sophie Montagne, who was a member of the Ice Maiden Expedition, the first all-female team to ski across Antarctica using muscle power alone, and the largest ever team to ski across the continent.

Sophie is joined by award-winning adventurer, travel writer, photographer, presenter and broadcaster, Phoebe Smith, who last year took a group of underprivileged young people to Antarctica with her #WeTwo Foundation. Two of her young explorers join us to share their experiences and introduce us to the future face of Antarctic exploration.

Discover this season of Antarctica In Sight: Live! our online talks bringing together scientists, adventurers, artists and historians to explore the past, present and future of Antarctica, and what we need to do to protect this extraordinary place. Join our interactive events and pose your questions to the panel in real time, as we discuss everything from frozen shipwrecks and flatpack architecture, to festive dining in the extremes.
