The Erasmus+ Youth Exchange "DECODE: Debunking the Myths of STEAM for Girls’ Opportunities, Diversity, and Empowerment is being held at Šiaulių techninės kūrybos centras from 13th to 19th of August in Siauliai, Lithuania.
The overall goal of the project is to encourage young girls to take up and participate in STEAM subjects, to aim and strive for a STEAM career while breaking the stereotypical bias of STEM fields being male-oriented. Using means of informal education to deconstruct gender stereotyping from its roots, to explore how it is created and manifests in our everyday lives.
Participants had a chance to meet various guests from the field. They also took part in a science laboratory work, where they replicated coral reefs with a help of metal salts. Next, girls were exploring the topic of gender equality and, particularly, in STEAM. Working in smaller groups participants were searching and presenting information on gender biases, social roles, women in STEAM and many more.
There are more activities to come and we look forward to successfull youth exchange!
