Why All-Girls programming?  👩🏼‍💻 🧑🏽‍🔬 👩🏾‍🎓

Creative Encounters is a proud network member of Actua, Canada’s largest STEM youth outreach charity with over 41 university and college-based members across the nation. As an Actua network member, Creative Encounters aims to provide barrier-free STEM programming to all youth, featuring special initiatives targeting underrepresented groups such as girls in STEM:

Actua’s National Girls Program inspires girls and young women to fulfill their critical role as leaders in STEM. Hands-on all-girls programs encourage their engagement in STEM fields like engineering and computer science where women continue to be vastly underrepresented. These programs provide girls with safe spaces to design, build, experiment, and explore. The programs are led by female instructors, role models, and mentors who break down the still existing stereotypes about women in engineering and science.
