Unequal realities: women’s diverse experiences of science and technology in South Africa
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Significant strides have been made through national policies and targeted programmes to promote women’s participation in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) in South Africa. The Department of Science, Technology and Innovation’s (DSTI) Science Engagement Strategy serves as a national framework to coordinate initiatives that spark public appreciation for the role of science and technology in driving a knowledge-based economy and improving quality of life for all. The National Development Plan 2030, the White Paper on Science, Technology and Innovation (STI) and the STI Decadal Plan all highlight the importance of advancing economic development and ensuring the equitable inclusion of women.
