Sparks partners have been working hard to start 2016 with new exciting things telling the world what the project is all about. Curious?
Research shows that the way sciences are communicated to young people is not (yet) gender inclusive. In the last years, many European funded projects have dealt with this issue, especially with the crucial topic of engaging teenagers, and specifically girls into STEM careers. It is a very interesting exercise to analyse these projects as their approaches to the topic show the evolution of gender inclusion theories in the last few years. However, it is not an easy task.
