Description

As a society, we are reliant on people working in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) (House of Lords Science and Technology Committee, 2022), but diversity in these areas is lacking. One UK‐based report found that women make up only 27% of the people working in STEM, with technology and engineering roles being particularly skewed in men’s favour (APPG on Diversity and Inclusion in STEM, 2020). Gender Equality is one of the UN’s sustainable development goals, and increasing the number of women working in STEM will help to bring us closer to reaching that goal (United Nations, 2015).
