Mapping Australian STEM participation initiatives for girls and women

This document attempts to map all initiatives aimed at enhancing girls' and women's participation in STEM in Australia across all sectors.

While all efforts have been made to ensure that this is complete is possible, it is inevitable that some initiatives will be missed. If we have missed a program that falls within the scope described below, please let us know at [email protected]

Scope

There are some conscious exclusion criteria that were employed in the development of this mapping exercise to maximise relevance of the results to the Women in STEM Decadal Plan Programs were excluded if they did not:

- exclusively focus on girls beyond primary school level.

- have a specific STEM focus (for example an entrepreneurship program which did not specifically focus on STEM related industry/business).

- run within the last five years.

Definitions

Academia – any institution dedicated to research and research training, including medical research institutes

Primary – primary school students

Secondary – secondary school students

Tertiary – students of universities and vocational education and training institutions

Industry – discipline specific organisations including not for profits, science and/or education consultancy businesses, media outlets, not for profits and specialist education

groups/programs not targeting in-school audiences

Cross-cutting – targets multiple audiences in different sectors or within the same sector e.g. teachers/educators participate in an initiative with the ultimate aim of influencing

primary or secondary students

Philanthropy - contributions from individuals or organisations

Government - local, state/territory or federal. Distinctions are not made in this document.

Community groups - organisations such as Girl Guides, Zonta and groups which have formed around a particular area of interest (e.g. Rocketing Girls in Robotics) Graphs are provided on the first three pages as a quick indicative overview of the range and scope of data collected.
