The "10-Year-Old Girls" project focuses on the power of encounters between girls and women to break stereotypes, fostering values such as collectivity, empathy, identification, and trust.
Based on a series of meetings with girls from different territories and socioeconomic realities in the city of Rio de Janeiro, the project unfolds to debate issues related to the place of women in our society, as well as their representation in science, and in the dialogue on urgent issues of climate, the environment and biodiversity.
Project Objectives
- Female Empowerment: Strengthening the presence of girls in science and environmental actions.
- Valuing Gender Equity: Promote gender equity in the areas of science and sustainability.
- Engagement in Environmental Issues: Debate and propose solutions to climate emergencies and biodiversity issues.
