Background

The National Advisory Council on Innovation (NACI) is a statutory body within the Department of Science and Innovation and its role is to advise the Minister of Higher Education, Science and Technology, and through the Minister, Cabinet on the role and contribution of science, mathematics, innovation and technology amongst other functions, in promoting and achieving national objectives. Thus, NACI’s mission is to provide evidence-based advice to the Minister of Science and Technology and, through the Minister, Cabinet on science, technology and innovation matters, through the research expertise and engagement with stakeholders.

In this regard, NACI would like to invite you to a workshop celebrating women in STEM and the progress made thus far. NACI will share its findings on the progress made in women’s participation in science, engineering and technology (SET) between 2009 and 2019. Importantly, the workshop seeks to bring critical debates around experience of women in STEM and how STEM women view a transformed National System of Innovation (NSI).
