March 15, 2021, 09:56
As part of the mentoring program of the UNICEF “Girls in Science” project, mentors have begun working with mentees.
In the first stage of the mentoring program, 96 mentors joined groups of 7th to 10th grade schoolgirls in Bishkek, Osh and Chui regions, who plan to enter STEM professions (722 girls).
After group assignments, mentors held an introductory talk with their mentees. They handed out the "Mentee Diary" and set common goals. Mentors actively meet with their mentees, instilling a love for a healthy lifestyle, learning to set goals, and attending cultural events. Mentors also pay attention to personal growth and conduct career guidance work. The work of mentors will last for five months.
The mentors of "Girls in Science" project are successful Kyrgyz women from involved business associations and STEM professions. The earlier "Roza Otunbaeva Initiative" (International Public Foundation conducted trainings for mentors in order to improve mentoring skills. Each mentor received a "Mentor Guide," and mentees received "Mentee Diaries".
The "Roza Otunbayeva Initiative" presented all the mentors with publications issued by the Foundation - books from the series, "Life of Remarkable People" and the book, "Women of Kyrgyzstan in Technology and Science".
A total of 2,600 girls from pilot schools in Bishkek, Osh, Alamedin and Ysyk-Ata districts of the Chui region will take part in the mentoring program of the 'Girls in Science' project. For five to six months the mentors will have the opportunity to share with the girls all their knowledge, skills and their professional and life experience. The mentor will help each girl dispel stereotypes about "non-female" professions, talk about STEM education, and help with self-determination and the choice of a future profession.
The “Roza Otunbayeva Initiative” would like to thank mentors who did not remain indifferent, took great responsibility and showed willingness to contribute to the successful future of girls.
