Bonding to create Future Leaders and Equity in STEMM is an avenue to encourage, retain and maintain equity in STEMM. As a male in STEMM profession in Africa, I observed that there is low percentage of women in Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics and Medicine. (STEMM). I also observed that those that are in it are deterred from progressing due to male domination in many instances. This programme is an avenue to support and sensitize women and girls, that they are the ones that can break barriers for all-encompassing involvement and retention in Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics and Medicine (STEMM). Bonding to create Future Leaders and Equity in STEMM will address non participation of girls and women in STEMM. This is a seminar that will take place early in the morning. We will invite women leaders to the event to give talk, and also use films and documentaries of successful women leaders since mentoring is a tool for youth empowerment. Participants (75% female and 25% male), collaborators from RSC network, Women organization, Girls guide, High school students etc will join us at the event.
Our objective is therefore to see a more proactive girls and women in Science.
We will also evaluate the success of our event by carrying out questionnaire engineered survey.
We believe with this programme we are breaking barriers and contributing to SDG 5: Gender Equality
