Abstract
The INAOE is deeply involved in two STEM programs coordinated by HAWC collaborator Ing. Janina Nava :
- “Por mas Mujeres en ciencia y tecnología” : Camps dedicated to exploring science and fostering personal growth tailored for female high school students with difficult background.
- “Mujeres en STEM Futuras lideres” : A mentoring program designed for young public high school students, with HAWC members serving as their tutors.
Also, to help address the lack of resources of the girls, Verania Echaide translated and adapted the ALICE MasterClass Material into Spanish.
