About the Event

For years women have been underrepresented in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) university courses and occupations. There has been progress: the percentage of female graduates with core STEM degrees is steadily growing, however, the split is still just 26%. This figure is also translated in the female STEM workforce, with women making up 24%. Much work needs to be done to encourage women to both study these subjects, and transition into the workforce.

Join CYW in conversation with Nadhim Zahawi to unpack the reasons behind the gender imbalance in STEM and put forward solutions which will level the playing field and promote equality.

Panelists:

Nadhim Zahawi MP, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, Minister for Intergovernmental Relations and Minister for Equalities

Dr Emma Mi, Vice President, Diversity, Conservative Young Women

Rushi Millns, Deputy Chairman, CWO

Chair: Ella Robertson McKay, National Chair, Conservative Young Women
