Our Network consists of volunteers (all genders) and STEM professionals who are committed to supporting aspiring Girls, Students and Young Professional Women in STEM Careers through mentorship, professional development, empowerment outreach and funding.
As a network we promote gender parity by advocating the inclusion of young girls and women in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, by providing knowledge sharing and mentorship platforms, hosting STEM Education Outreach especially in underserved and disadvantaged communities, as well as facilitating access to Scholarship Opportunities, Internship and Job Opportunities, Educational Materials & Skills Development Initiatives.
Through STEM Education, our goal is to foster a generation of young girls who, using elements from all scientific fields, can acquire the ability to solve problems & prepare to thrive in the present & future digital world, as well as solve authentic problems for the complex world around them.
Our advocacy aims to inspire and motivate girls and young women to become a global ‘Force For Good’, thereby creating lasting impact and positive influence in the world around them.
