The IET-Ghana Women in Engineering group has initiated talks with the Ministry of Youth, Development and Empowerment. This is to create a strong working relationship.
The aim of this collaboration is to support and encourage young girls to pursue education in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics STEM fields. It also aims to boost participation in Technical and Vocational Education and Training TVET.
The IET WIE Chairlady, Engr. Mrs. Adjoa Agyinba Tetteh Gyamera, led a delegation during a courtesy call on the ministry. She was joined by other senior engineers from the organization.
This initiative by IET-Ghana seeks to bridge the gender gap in STEM and TVET sectors. It will provide more opportunities for young women across Ghana.
