International Day of the Girl – Let’s celebrate the role of Women In Engineering

11 October has been marked as the International Day of the Girl since 2012.

The day aims to “highlight and address the needs and challenges girls face while promoting girls’ empowerment and the fulfilment of their human rights” according to the UN.

We fully support that sentiment. Engineering is an industry that faces its own problems with equality and representation, but that is not to say that women have not contributed to the field in amazing ways.

This October 11, let’s celebrate International Day of the Girl Child.
