Changing the face of STEM from Latin America to NASA
UN Girls’ Education Initiative (UNGEI)
By 2020, 80% of jobs will be STEM-related, but currently women comprise just 14% of the global STEM workforce. We know that a significant part of tackling gender inequalities starts in the classroom as education provides a critical path for female students to fulfil their potential in STEM. While questions remain as to how to get there, inroads are being made. In this podcast special guest Dr Wycliffe Otieno - Chief of Education for UNICEF South Africa discusses pathways to STEM careers for girls in South Africa.
