The organisers invited parents, teachers, and students to the programme so that they can understand the importance of the nation's man power need for female engineers.

The programme held in Koforidua, was on the theme: " Unpacking STEM careers: The power of diversity and inclusion in shaping the future."

In his keynote address, Mr Charles Nii Ayiku Ayiku, General Manager/ External Communications, who represented the Ag. Managing Director of the Electricity Company of Ghana, commended the incredible efforts of ECG-Women in Engineering and said, "your commitment to empowering young women in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) is not just commendable - it's transformative."

He said STEM was not just about equations, codes, or circuits. It was also about solving real world problems, creating solutions that improved lives, and shaped the future of the nation and the world.
He highlighted that " here is the thing - innovation thrives on diversity. When we bring together different perspectives, experiences, and ideas, we unlock new possibilities. That is why it is important to get many women in STEM."

Mr Ayiku Ayiku, said the parents were the backbone of these young ladies' journeys and it was their encouragement, guidance, and belief in their abilities that will help them (young ladies) soar to greater heights.

The ECG-WinE, launched in September 13, 2018, has grown into a thriving community dedicated to empowering women engineers and bridging the gender gap in the engineering profession.
Alberta Amankwah, President of ECG-WinE, said the career guidance programme aimed to inspire the youth's minds to pursue careers in STEM, and provide guidance and counseling to help them make informed decisions about their future.

She said it also showcased the importance of diversity and inclusion in STEM fields, and encouraged parents and teachers to support and nurture the interests of the young people.

The students participants from private and public schools participated in interactive sessions, and learnt about the career paths available.
