STEM Kitteens

STEM Kitteens is a project that has been launched to educate 14 to 19-year-old girls to direct them towards technical directions and empower women in the IT industry. The project brings together a local community that works on exchanging experience, skills, and knowledge. In this way STEM Kitteens joined the other local communities and schools all over Croatia, but also across Europe. The event is planned to take place each month or more often depending on the interest of other local communities. The number of workshops to be held in other cities may vary. Each local community is able to organize part of its lecturers and volunteers. This opens the exchange of knowledge in a more relaxed way.
