Herstory in the Making: Empowering Today’s Girls to Become Tomorrow’s Leaders Through Inclusive Girls-in-STEM Environmental Education
Lifelong connections to fresh water often begin in childhood, when girls and marginalized youth first experience disproportionate access to and representation in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). Learn how Stroud Water Research Center’s award-winning outdoor environmental education program is bridging these barriers with freshwater-focused K-12 Girls-in-STEM learning experiences! This highly intentional and inclusive programming not only sparks girls’ interest and literacy in environmental STEM. It also creates critical socioeconomic pathways, cultivates awareness of green spaces essential to health/wellness, and sows the seeds of lifelong environmental agency for more climate-resilient communities. Join us to discover the success stories, interdisciplinary partnerships, and instructional methodologies empowering today’s girls to become tomorrow’s leaders. The future of fresh water begins here.
