The following excerpt is from the article “Carleton and its Partners Celebrate Success of Gendered Design in STEAM Program<\/a>“.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following three years of international collaboration, Carleton University and its partners marked the successful conclusion of the Gendered Design in STEAM (GDS) Program on Tuesday, Oct. 4, 2022 with a virtual summative closing event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Launched in 2019, the GDS Program focused on investigating and advancing gendered design with scholars at institutions across the global souths through 20 grant-awarded projects. The program aimed to contribute to more inclusive technological designs in science, technology, engineering, the arts and math by building capacity in gendered design and innovations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The GDS Program was led by principal investigators Prof. Bjarki Hallgrimsson<\/a> of the School of Industrial Design<\/a> and Prof. Dominique Marshall<\/a> of the Department of History<\/a>. Prof. Chiara Del Gaudio<\/a> of the School of Industrial Design was the program\u2019s investigator, with Kerry Grace serving as the program\u2019s coordinator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The awarded scholars worked in a variety of STEAM fields with a common goal to identify and overcome gender bias and tackle issues especially affecting women in Lower-and-Middle-Income countries (LMIC). The scholars were encouraged to use participatory design in their research to bring diverse and critical perspectives to address gender issues by including the affected population (often women) directly in their project, reshaping how design challenges and solutions are addressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt has been an awarding and humbling experience to work with the 20 projects spread out over the world,\u201d says Hallgrimsson. \u201cThe enthusiasm shown by our colleagues in Africa, Latin America and Asia is clearly indicative of how important community-oriented STEAM work with a focus on Gender is.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
