BECAUSE IT MATTERS
Thousands of young girls want to “Make The World A Better Place”
Are you one of Thousands of Companies, Higher Education Institutes, Public Sector Partners or Volunteers that can show how through STEM
It matters because
- Expertise in STEM subjects is required to deliver our economic ambition
- Just 17% of first time entrants to technology courses in universities are women, just 24% in engineering representing no change in 10 years
- Women make up 50% of the workforce yet less than 25% work in jobs that use STEM skills
- The world economic forum predict that the top 15 economies will lose 5 million jobs in the next 5 years; these losses will fall disproportionately on women as they are not taking up careers in the new jobs created by STEM if we do nothing.
