🧪 Women in STEM 🔬

“Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.”
- Marie Curie, first female to win a Nobel prize


Women in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) have made significant strides, but challenges remain. This underrepresentation is due to various factors, including gender stereotypes, male-dominated cultures, and fewer role models. However, there are many initiatives aimed at closing this gap. Organizations like Women in STEM (WiSTEM) work globally to inspire and empower young women to pursue STEM careers through mentorship, networking, and outreach. These efforts are crucial in addressing some of the world’s most pressing issues, such as healthcare, climate change, and sustainable development.

How can we close the gap?
