As a part of its mission, Levers in Heels hosted its maiden Twitter Chat to discuss the "Low participation of women in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM): Reasons & Solutions" on Saturday, July 9. This was done in partnership with The Africa In Me, a Pan African integration platform that shares African values, culture, development and unity.
The live event focused on the reasons behind the few numbers of women in STEM careers, and solutions imparted by special guests:
Lucy Quist, CEO of Airtel Ghana, Farida Bedwei, Co-founder and CTO of Logiciel Ghana, Anne Nutsuklo, Co-founder of mySME Portal, Regina Honu, Founder of Soronko Solutions, Anie Akpe, Founder of Innov8tiv Magazine & IBOM LLC, Esther Ngumbi, Founder of Spring Break Kenya, Rasheeda Yehuza, Founder of Nasara Tech, Lianne du Toit, Co Vice Chairperson of The Silicon Cape Initiative, Aneth David, Next Einstein Forum (NEF) Ambassador for Tanzania, Judith Owigar, Co-founder of AkiraChix, Florence Toffa, Director at Mobile Web Ghana and Ethel Cofie, CEO of EDEL Technology Consulting & Founder of Women In Tech Africa.
The discussion started with our first question:
Q1: What do you think accounts for women’s lower participation in STEM careers compared to men in your country?
