Education and vocational training play a crucial role in driving the economic and social progress of nations. However, entrenched gender and social stereotypes often influence career choices, leading to a dearth of diversity, particularly in fields like STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics).
This initiative aims to tackle this issue through gamification, mentoring, and fostering collaboration between educational institutions and businesses to enhance career guidance. By enhancing diversity within STEAM professions, the project aims to stimulate innovation, advance equal opportunities, and bolster both economic and social advancement within the community.
