FAME foundation was established to solicit, encourage and advance the social, emotional and economic wellbeing of women and girls as well as formulate programmes within the framework of national development plan with a view to enhancing the participation of women and advocate for gender parity in the society.
FAME foundation firmly believe that the entire nation, businesses, communities and groups can benefit from the implementation of programs and policies that adopt the notion of women empowerment.
HerSTEM is an initiative of FAME Foundation aimed at harnessing women and girls with disabilities with skills and knowledge in the field of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM).
This will address the issue of lack of access to quality technology education that women and girls with disabilities face and further empower them to compete favorably with their contemporaries, as well as empower them towards getting better chances of employment, in order to reduce poverty, and improve their mental and financial well-being, in line with the Sustainable Development Goals.
I enrolled for the HerSTEM course training because I want to be a research scientist. I also want to create a space and opportunities for young people who do not have the privilege to access basic knowledge.
I am definite that the HerSTEM training will give me a standing point to achieve my goal.
I enrolled for the HerSTEM training because I am very passionate about STEM. I also want to gain more knowledge in graphic design so I can make an impact by teaching other people who do no have an access to gain knowledge.
I have always had interest in computer technology, hence my reason for enrolling in HerSTEM. I feel that enrolling in this course will be of great impact to me and my career.
