Transforming the culture of STEM towards inclusivity
Our Vision
We envision an inclusive culture within Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) where interdisciplinary approaches are used for positive social change.
By highlighting the potential for science and technology to better our communities, we anticipate an increase in the diversity of people, perspectives, and ideas in STEM, resulting in more innovative and sustainable solutions.

Our mission is simple:
to advocate the power of STEM for social impact.
Our Values
Diversity
Collaboration
Creativity
Diversity
Our work starts from a place of compassion, empathy, and integrity. We welcome and value different viewpoints, experiences, and sources of knowledge and we are curious about different ways of doing things, while also staying true to our individual sense of self.
Collaboration
Our team is made better through mutual respect, learning, and contribution towards common goals. Working together, we aspire towards our mission advocating STEM for social impact and our vision of equity, diversity, and inclusion in the STEM fields. Within our team we foster a growth mindset while remaining solutions-oriented.
Creativity
We thrive on the opportunities presented by the unknown. We value process and positive risk-taking because meaningful change and true innovation can only be achieved by trying something new. We believe our creativity will help us find the emerging possibilities.
