In compliance with COVID-19 regulations, the camp will comprise of 50 girls running in March 2023.
The objective of the GirlEng Technovation Camp is to get girls to start thinking and acting like engineers.
This is achieved through personal development, STEM awareness & mentorship with female engineering students. A signature activity is our LaunchPad Activity, part of our #1MillionGirlsinSTEM global campaign which reframes the question of “What do you want to be when you grow up?” to “What problem/s do you want to solve?”. Girls also engage in participatory research on topics such as “Understanding Your Community and Your Role” and “Engineering Life: Coping with Pressures”. Workshops are designed for developing cognitive & behavioral skills.
