STEMpower
Empowering young women in STEM
2024 – 2025 | Erasmus+ KA220 project | 2023-2-CZ01-KA210-VET-000183488
About the Project
STEMpower addresses the persistent gender gap in STEM by encouraging school-aged girls to consider careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. By highlighting the diversity of roles within the STEM field and offering real-life female role models, the project challenges stereotypes, promotes gender inclusion, and equips girls with the inspiration and information needed to pursue a future in STEM.
Project Outputs
The project developed a series of digital stories featuring successful women in STEM, an interactive workshop programme for girls aged 11–14, and an online platform showcasing these materials. The workshops included hands-on activities and career guidance to help girls explore STEM pathways. All resources are freely available to inspire broader engagement with STEM careers. All outputs are available on www.stem-power.eu.
