Generation Connect Gender Champions Workshop

Generation Connect Gender Champions Workshop

Competitively selected from over 400 applicants, the 12 Generation Connect Gender Champions are young women from around the world with a demonstrated passion for advancing equity in ICTs and STEM. Participants joined them for an inspiring interactive workshop featuring stations on 1) using ICTs/STEM for good, 2) overcoming adversity, 3) closing the gender gap, and 4) making change in your own way. The conversations were engaging, empowering, and immediately relevant to both young delegates and high-level guests.
