Challenge

According to the EQUALS Research Report 2019 on the gender digital gap, only 35% of women major in STEM subjects at higher education. In Nigeria, according to the National Bureau of Statistics, women makeup just 22% of the total number of Engineering and Technology university graduates. The UNESCO 2017 Cracking the Code Report explains that leaving out girls and women from STEM education and careers is a loss for all of society and delays the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals.

Solution

In Nigeria and many parts of Africa, radio still remains a popular and widely accessible medium in reaching remote areas and communities with limited technology resources. As internet access becomes more widespread, podcasts have emerged as another important way to reach communities of women across the African continent and the world. She Talks Tech is positioned to provide Nigerian and African women with valuable resources to educate, guide and inspire them to make connections between STEM.

Long-Term Impact

She Talks Tech will serve as a powerful platform to highlight the achievements, experiences, and challenges faced by women in STEM fields. By sharing their stories and expertise, providing valuable educational content, discussing various STEM topics, advancements, and opportunities, She Talks Tech will inspire and motivate other women to pursue careers in STEM and help bridge the gender gap in STEM.
