Spotlight on women in STEAM in Warsaw
Amy Karle will bring her unique blend of body-based investigation and technological experimentation to explore ways to support women in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Mathematics). She will build participants’ skills through an investigation of past, present and future gender equality. Personal stories will be the basis for participants to create projects that acknowledge and/or enable them to break through barriers ingrained in cultural norms.
