Women in STEM Decadal Plan

The national , developed by the Australian Academy of Science (AAS)  in collaboration with the Australian Academy of Technology and Engineering (AATE), offers a vision and opportunities to guide organisations and stakeholders to achieve a transformative, systematic and sustained change towards gender equality in Australia’s STEM sector by 2030. As a Champion organisation, the University of ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ has agreed to publicly align our gender equity journey with the Decadal Plan.

The Women in STEM Decadal Plan provides a framework to ensure the STEM ecosystem is moving towards a shared vision. It outlines six opportunities for all stakeholders - government, academia, industry, education and the broader community - who have the power to act and create change. The six opportunities are:

  • leadership and cohesion
  • evaluation
  • workplace culture
  • visibility
  • education
  • industry action
