Role Model Volunteer (Women in Technology)
We are looking for women in tech to share their life/career experience with secondary school girls
Project Details
What we need
- Join regular 90 minutes speed networking events with young girls in schools
- Share your story and help girls boost their self confidence in pursuing their passion
Background
Inspiring Girls Hong Kong offers free career and life planning programs to secondary schools in Hong Kong. We connect female professionals like you to with young girls form 14-18 years old who are just at the stage of discovering what is possible for them in the future.
What we have
You will be invited to an 1-hour mandatory online training before meeting the girls. The training will help you understand the objective of the program, what it means to be a Role Model and give you useful tips for communicating with teenagers.
Why this is important
Based on our previous interactions with schools, it has been evident that there persists a notable disparity in the inclination and motivation to pursue STEM subjects or pursue careers in STEM fields, with girls generally displaying lower interest. Your involvement will play a crucial role in narrowing this gap by challenging the conventional perception of a STEM professional and igniting curiosity and enthusiasm in girls.
