Equity in STEM

Equity in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) refers to creating fair opportunities and support for all individuals, regardless of their background, gender, race, or socioeconomic status. It involves addressing barriers that historically marginalized groups face in pursuing STEM education and careers. This can include implementing inclusive teaching practices, mentorship programs, and outreach initiatives that encourage participation. The goal is to ensure diverse perspectives enrich innovation and problem-solving, ultimately leading to a more equitable and effective STEM workforce that reflects society as a whole.
