STEM Needs You: Why It's Time for Young Women to Shape the Future of Science and Tech

Across the globe, industries are racing to find qualified people to build the future. From artificial intelligence and sustainable energy to biomedical research and climate modeling, the world urgently needs scientists, engineers, technologists, and mathematicians to tackle some of the most pressing challenges of our time. However, the reality is that we are facing a significant shortfall. By 2030, the global workforce could face a shortage of over 85 million skilled professionals. Additionally, there continues to be a significant underrepresentation of women in STEM fields—Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.

Abstract

Across the globe, industries are racing to find qualified people to build the future. From artificial intelligence and sustainable energy to biomedical research and climate modeling, the world urgently needs scientists, engineers, technologists, and mathematicians to tackle some of the most pressing challenges of our time. However, the reality is that we are facing a significant shortfall. By 2030, the global workforce could face a shortage of over 85 million skilled professionals. Additionally, there continues to be a significant underrepresentation of women in STEM fields—Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.
