Description

Do you want to inspire the next generation of engineers?

Well you have found the right place! Welcome to RoboGals

Who we are 

We are RoboGals, a volunteering society dedicated to inspiring young girls and minorities to discover the world of STEM. Part of an international network spanning over 30 countries, we have collectively taught more than 100,000 girls, and counting! 

Through our free engineering and technology workshops, we engage with our local community, encouraging students from primary and secondary schools to explore their interests, build skills, and grow in self-confidence within these fields.

You don’t have to be female, and you don’t have to be studying engineering or science. We’ll train you in everything you’ll need to know. Come to just our events, come to one workshop, or come to them all! Everyone is welcome :)

Why we do what we do

Across the globe, women are still underrepresented in STEM: 
• Australia - 28% women in STEM, 14% in engineering 
• ⁠UK - 14.4% in STEM, 8.2% in engineering 
• ⁠USA - 24% in STEM, 14% in engineering
• ⁠Canada - <22% in STEM
• ⁠Saudi Arabia - 1% researchers
• ⁠Philippines 11.2% in engineering

At RoboGals, we work to change this. By running free engineering and technology workshops for girls and minorities, we aim to spark curiosity, build confidence, and create a more inclusive future in STEM, especially in engineering, where diversity is most lacking.
