The objective of the GirlEng Technovation Camp is to get girls to start thinking and acting like engineers.
This is achieved through personal development, STEM awareness & mentorship with female engineering students. A signature activity is our LaunchPad Activity, part of our #1MillionGirlsinSTEM global campaign which reframes the question of “What do you want to be when you grow up?” to “What problem/s do you want to solve?”. Girls also engage in participatory research on topics such as “Understanding Your Community and Your Role” and “Engineering Life: Coping with Pressures”. Workshops are designed for developing cognitive & behavioral skills.
