STEM VRS STEAM!!!!!!!???!

Think about a world dominated by Science Gurus and leaving behind Art talented individuals.

at Kenyan Women in STEAM Initiative, we bring together Arts and Science and show that Both Matter in shaping and equipping the whole mindset, the psychological perspectives and experiences of everyone in the whole circle.

we don't limit it to STEM, we diverge into Arts because we know the potential lies within the thinking capacity of the individual.

This is why STEAM is born from STEM because the Art sector is a critical part in moulding the whole being and unveiling the radical move for change and mindset.

This is Caroline, founder of Kenyan Women in STEAM Initiative...... the movement that brings all together in one Facet.

We aim at closing the gaps between WOMEN ALREADY IN STEAM AND WOMEN SEEKING TO PURSUE STEAM across Kenya.
