Episode Description
The 2024 Female Students and STEM Report reveals a striking disparity between young women's aptitudes for STEM careers and their expressed interest in these fields. This "career exposure gap" highlights the urgent need for earlier interventions in K-12 education to support and encourage female participation in STEM. As we face a future increasingly reliant on technical skills, addressing this gap is not just a matter of equity, but a crucial step in building a robust and innovative workforce for tomorrow. What can we do to support diverse interests and talents in all of our young children? Amy Miller-Weilan from YouScience joins the show.
