Summary

The event will have secondary school pupils representatives, other science colleagues will be invited as well. There will be two presentations, the first on quantum technologies for sustainable development and the second on breaking gender Barriers: early approaches. There will be the formation of a network of secondary school pupils in science called 'science club'. The Women in Chemistry will support the growth and activities of this club to enable them learn to network and collaborate from an early age. There will be refreshment with local diets. There will an interactive session as well as a question and answer session.
