Topic
Promoting Women's Participation and Leadership in STEM and Space Exploration
Committee Overview
Women remain underrepresented in many STEM fields and in decision-making roles connected to space exploration. Unequal access to education, professional networks, funding, and leadership opportunities can reinforce this gap.
Delegates will develop measures that expand education and career pathways, confront discrimination, and ensure that women participate in and lead the scientific and technological decisions shaping the future.
Preparation Tips
- Research your assigned country’s or delegation’s position thoroughly.
