February 11th is celebrated as International Day of Women and Girls in Science (IDWGIS)🇨🇲
Empowering Girls in STEAM Across Cameroon
Today, we celebrate the strength, intelligence, and potential of women and girls in science and STEAM education across Cameroon and beyond.
At Mayabel Movement Int Cameroon, empowering girls through education is a core mission.
Through our flagship initiative MMI Girls Rising, we are taking the lead in Cameroon by encouraging girls to explore science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) — especially in communities where access and representation remain limited.
Meet Ebun, a 10-year-old aspiring scientist.
Like many girls in Cameroon, Ebun is curious, talented, and full of dreams. She wants to use science to solve problems in her community and contribute to national development.
Through MMI Girls Rising, girls like Ebun are supported with mentorship, learning opportunities, and the confidence to believe that science is also for them.
When Cameroonian girls rise in science, Cameroon rises.
Investing in girls’ education today means building stronger schools, healthier communities, and a more innovative future.
On this International Day of Women and Girls in Science, MMI reaffirms its commitment in Cameroon to:
Promoting girls’ participation in STEAM education
Supporting young girls early, especially at the basic education level
Inspiring the next generation of Cameroonian women scientists and innovators
Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science
