In France, Elles Bougent has extensive experience reducing the obstacles that keep girls, in middle- and high schools, from STEM studies and careers. The organisation dismantles stereotypes through communication campaigns, on-the-ground actions, information initiatives and experience-sharing around the jobs of the energy transition. A large network of volunteers supports Elles Bougent in shifting perceptions directly within schools. Thanks to this unique network of female mentors, partners and schools, Elles Bougent raises awareness and inspires girls to dare pursue a technical career.
