Increasing diversity in STEM: Principles for effective interventions
Many organisations are keen to see an increase in the size and diversity of the physical sciences, technology and engineering workforce. Our research and practice over the past four years schools means that, as a group, NUSTEM have a good understanding of what types of interventions are likely to support this desire.
We’ve pulled together our thoughts and findings into one helpful report which provides starting points and suggestions for how effective STEM interventions should be approached.
