About Girl Powered Workshops:
The Girl Powered workshops are a supportive environment and opportunity to create awesome STEM experiences for girls that can lead to a better reflection of the diversity in our communities. Despite all genders showing equal interest in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) in primary school, women only represent 30% of the STEM workforce.
These workshops by Kiwibots are a way for us to encourage inter-generational engagement in STEM, creating a safe space for our girls and encouraging them to take part and have a go. Join us for a fun robotics day out – no experience necessary and a fabulous opportunity to try your hand at robotics! We can’t wait to see you there.

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

-
26.4% No, individuals should take responsibility
