Rising Scientess

Open to ages 7-12, but all are welcomed.

Exploration of STEM for young kids to encourage innovative thinking.

We are providing the first steps for future scientists and leaders.

We are a STEM-based organisation for young girls to engage their minds and grow their knowledge and interests in STEM-based projects, experiments and content! Rising Scientess is a non-profit organisation with the purpose of creating an equal opportunity in STEM driven by the absence of women in STEM careers.

STEM stands for science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Our purpose is to help expand the interest in different STEM options for young girls, and do fun activities to help them understand how certain aspects of the world around them works, in the hope that they are introduced to all the options that allow them to be the leaders in the next generation of scientists, technologists, engineers, and mathematicians. We hope they will make significant contributions and advancements in STEM areas. We are fuelled by the low numbers of women in STEM, compared to men, and we desire a future where the imbalance no longer exist.
