WOMEN'S FORUM GLOBAL MEETING 19

#UnlockYourself: Connecting girls to success in STEM - #Women4STEM

Room: Discovery Space

Description

When girls engaged in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) go on to apply their skills and ideas to STEM roles and careers, they have the power to change the world. Proven strategies for engaging girls in STEM experiences include connecting STEM to real-life problems, offering them diverse and realistic role models, and emphasizing the communal and social nature of STEM. How can we - as mentors, parents, business leaders, managers of current and future talent - harness these strategies to help girls and women succeed in STEM?
