Biennial Event - Workshop and Stand Leaders

We are looking for workshop or stand leaders for our upcoming biennial event.
If you are interested, please send us an email at events@elargisteshorizons.ch [↗] and we will get in touch with you.
Organisation quickly explained
Where possible, workshops and stands should be given by women role models, who are experts in their field.
The workshops will take place 3 times, at 9h30, 11h00 and 13h30.
Two sessions will be in French, and one in English.
The stands will be manned from 8h15 to 16h15.
Group size will be 10 - 15 girls.
Guides will ensure that groups of participants are guided from one session to another.
Key elements for designing a good workshop
- Fun – the goal is to inspire and engage not teach! A boring lecture will only serve to penetrate boring stereotypes.
- Practical, age-appropriate activities – the golden rule is to have 5 minutes of active participation for every minute of speaking time.
- Sharing – workshop leaders share personal stories about their interest in STEM, demonstrating that in real life women can pursue STEM careers and still have a fulfilling life.
