Hi everyone,

I am working with Women Engineer's Pakistan on initiatives to improve gender parity in STEM fields in Pakistan (www.womenengineers.pk). We are looking for organisation with similar goals in the UK to collaborate for an upcoming project grant.

Please let me know if you (or someone you know) is interested. This one is specifically for UK, since that's what the grant calls for. We are of course open otherwise to collaborations globally :)

Best,

Saba

Thank you Yana for following up. This sounds like a great initiative, and I hope that MCAA can provide you with support. Please note that we also have a UK chapter as well as a Pakistan/Sri Lanka Chapter, both of which you can join via the web portal, and both of which may provide additional support and resources.

Best of luck!

Dear Saba, this is all correct and you will be able to establish a collaboration with either GEMS or the UK Chapter (if it has to be specifically with the UK) or both. I am also a member of the UK Chapter and the GEMS Chair, Magda, belongs to the UK Chapter.

Matthew, I thought we could be more helpful on this matter after we will receive some details from Saba as I mentioned above. 

Regards,

Yana
