  • In the vast universe of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics, it's high time we recognise the often underrepresented group of black women.

The video from eNCA discusses the importance of encouraging women to pursue careers in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics). It highlights the significant gender gap in these fields, where women are underrepresented despite their capabilities and potential contributions. The discussion includes insights from various experts and advocates who emphasize the need for early exposure to STEAM subjects, mentorship, and the creation of inclusive environments in educational and professional settings. They address barriers like stereotypes, lack of role models, and systemic biases that deter women from entering these careers. The conversation also touches on initiatives aimed at increasing female participation, such as scholarships, workshops, and campaigns to change societal perceptions about women in STEAM. The overarching message is the critical role of diversity in driving innovation and the economic benefits of tapping into the full talent pool.
