Needs, challenges and experiences of women in STEM: Best practices from Higher Education and the Industry
Keynote Speaker: Androulla Vasiliou, Former European Commissioner for Education, Culture, Multilingualism & Youth
“Increasing the participation of women in STEM, both in academia and in business, will improve science, will reduce women’s social exclusion and will increase European competitiveness”
We are inviting Higher Education academics, educators, students, professionals, teachers, policymakers, experts and stakeholders at national or EU levels relevant in the area of female empowerment in the fields of STEM in Higher Education and the industry to join our event!

Join shorturl.at/rNRS5

Are you a male or female working in the #STEM sector? If yes, we need your support by participating in our online #survey for #FeSTEM Project! http://shorturl.at/uAJL1
The project entitled «Female Empowerment in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics in Higher Education» (funded by #erasmusplus) aims to promote an innovative method pedagogy that will allow HE students to use traditional and computationally-rich media to create meaningful, shareable exhibits that will act as mentoring models for encouraging girls and women to remain active in STEM.
