Welcome to INCLUSION². Inclusion Squared is the first whole-of-career approach to supporting women in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM). This program supports women from early education to senior executive through a three-tiered approach.

Why INCLUSION²?

The World Economic Forum predicts the most important skills in 2020 will be complex problem solving, critical thinking, and creativity. Diversity is essential to ensure we have a workforce equipped for the future. But diversity is still a far reach and women are greatly underrepresented in STEM. Barriers to diversity create boundaries that inhibit creativity and innovation needed to enable the workforce required to remain at the forefront of competitiveness. 

 
 

INCLUSION²​ Program Launch
On 5 December 2017, The Warren Centre hosted an official launch event for the INCLUSION²​ Program. Jo Burston, Founder of Inspiring Rare Birds announced their support for the program through an ongoing partnership which will assist female entrepreneurs in their journey. 

 

​Entrepreneurship 101 - 23 February 2018
As part of the second phase of the program, this one day masterclass is designed to provide women with the essential information they need to begin their journey in entrepreneurship.

Register your interest for upcoming courses by e-mailing Lauren Khalil at lauren.khalil@sydney.edu.au.

 

Future STEM leaders share their stories
The first component of this program involves a series of video stories from university students sharing their journey in STEM studies. In this video, STEM students discuss their inspiration and offer advice to young girls considering studies in science, technology, engineering, and maths.
