2022 AFS Scholarship Program for Girls Worldwide
The AFS has opened applications for the 2022 AFS Scholarship Program for interested and qualified Girls Worldwide.
The scholarship provides an opportunity for girls from around the world to explore their interests in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics through virtual 12-week training.
The program culminates with team projects and presentations that offer potential solutions to real-world challenges, with an emphasis on climate change and the energy transition. Scholars who complete the program earn the Advanced Certificate on Global Competence for Social Impact, awarded by AFS and the University of Pennsylvania Center for Social Impact Strategy.
Scholarship Details:
Women around the world currently make up more than half of the college-educated workforce. However, STEM fields are made up of only 28% of women. Women and girls who desire to learn more about STEM often face a challenging set of circumstances in fields that are traditionally dominated by men. (See the American Association of University Women for more details). That’s why we have created a program dedicated to the future of women in STEM fields. By providing an opportunity for girls from around the world to explore their interests in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, we can start to change this trend and open up more possibilities for the perspectives of women in the greater goal of reaching a sustainable future.
