Biennial Event - Workshop and stand leaders

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.

• 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.
