Moving on to @PakInnovates - PIF through the recent years has evolved. Since 2016, STEMx (formerly the National STEM School) has become a movement to prepare students (and teachers) to learn (or teach) STEM in a way that will enable them to learn while pursuing their passions

Question is how do we address these social factors? Would empowerment come first and social barriers later, or would social barriers be broken first and empowerment later?
Barrier to women’s participation includes conscious & unconscious biases, gender stereotypes, lack of inclusive policies at govt & corporate levels but from another angle, it also needs real capacity building as well (cont) #SCWomenInTech

More advice: work on your communication skills and focus on improve your presence - posture, sense of awareness and mindfulness. More than what you know how to code, it is important to know how to play leadership politics right. – at Punjab, Pakistan
#SCWomenInTech shall provide funding for upto 5 Women Founders plus lots of mentoring and support to help scale their ventures. Great Opportunity to get some good advice. @AishaFSarwari @jehan_ara @kalsoom82 @MariaUmar @SaniaNishtar

I am curious to know what are the efforts being made to encourage the entry of women in to workforce - especially in entrepreneurship? How are men leading the way? @AtharOsama @angelspakistan @sheryhydri @SyedAhmadDPL #SCWomeninTech #HeForShe

While there are talk of women empowerment and backlash against AuratMarch .... the numbers speak the truth! What are the polices for creating a level playing field? @ImranKhanPTI @StateBank_Pak @1sakhtar
Is there a plan to create level playing field for women to do entrepreneurship? Only 1% of women in Pakistan are entrepreneurs, vs. 21% of men. These are latest statistics and things can't go on like this. #SCWomenInTech @PakInnovates @PakPMO @PresOfPakistan

If we look at the numbers from the OIC Countries the number of graduates of Women in STEM fields is more than men yet their numbers then why is there a total contrast in the employment ratio of WomeninSTEM fields. @PakInnovates @AtharOsama
