Empowering a new generation of girl scientists

 
Around the globe, women are making significant inroads into politics and business. But why is it so rare to see women leaders in the sciences?

In Ghana, as in many places, girls grow up to believe that they're not skilled in the sciences... and the stereotype becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Camfed is working to change that with a generation of young women who can aspire to discover cures to disease, achieve technological breakthroughs, and identify new species.

On August 5, Camfed Ghana will accompany 120 girls from northern Ghana to the capital, Accra, to take part in the fourth annual Girls' Science, Mathematics and Technology Camp, a project run in partnership with the Credit Suisse Global Education Initiative.

The camp - which is also held annually in Zambia - brings science to life through experiential learning, introducing students to topics such as plant reproduction, electricity and computing.

Every year, the girls return to their villages brimming with enthusiasm and new ideas. "We want girls to leave the camp feeling like nothing is out of their reach," says Olga Ofosua Teye-Topey, Education Manager at Camfed Ghana.

Think you'd like to help educate and empower girls like these in rural Africa?

Donate to our Causes project and help send 10 girls to high school in Zambia.

Thank you for your support!

The Camfed USA team

Woah! I'm really enjoying the template/theme of this blog. It's simple, yet
effective. A lot of times it's very hard to get that "perfect balance" between user friendliness and visual appeal. I must say you've done a fantastic job with
this. Also, the blog loads super quick for me on Chrome.
