We are thrilled to be hosting an online episode of our very own Science, you had me at hello® in partnership with the Vodafone Foundation Luxembourg, WWT, and the Kenyatta Trust. In this special broadcast geared to girls in Kenya and Luxembourg, we will be exploring all about Transformation!
Just think of how far we have come in STEM engineering, technology, and innovation, what enormous transformation still awaits that YOU may invent, and what personal growth and transformation lies ahead for you. To help inspire us, we will hear from speakers who will share their own career inspiration and how they have transformed along the way, as well as engage the girls in a moment of cross-cultural connection.
And stay tuned for our experiment but make sure to bring a pen and paper with you! All are welcome though this particular broadcast is aimed at girls aged 13-14.

Where: This live broadcast will take place on the platform Zoom. Please be reassured that we are utilizing Zoom’s safety functions and that we will be monitoring online safety during the broadcast by having a Safety Officer as part of our dedicated behind-the-scenes team.
Why: From our own Impact studies, we know that one thing is key to inspiring girls to pursue STEM subjects – and that is, to provide a community of role models. Tailored to our older g4g students who are determining what studies to pursue in university, our broadcasts “Science, you had me at hello® ” connect female scientists and STEM leaders to the next generation of potential engineers, scientists and curiosity-filled young women. They are designed to encourage you to think about what inspires you, to begin to contemplate your purpose and to create some ideas on how you can get there.
