We are beyond thrilled to be hosting another International Science Week for Women and Girls in Science across Africa.
With over 600 girls across 10 schools in 7 countries (South Africa πΏπ¦, Cameroon π¨π², Nigeria π³π¬, Botswana π§πΌ, Ghana π¬π , Kenya π°πͺ and Tanzania πΉπΏ, we hope to promote the full and equal access and participation of women in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics fields.
Shoutout to the wonderful women π₯³ in our community to lending their voices and sharing stories that are helping girls to understand why it is important, how they can personally benefit by studying STEM subjects and how their involvement can provide positive outcomes for others across the world.
Thank you so much to our supporting partner @MacFreeFilms πππ for making this happen
LET THE COUNTDOWN BEGIN π₯
