Canberra Women of Science and Art - National Science Week 2022

Meet a diverse group of amazing Canberran women working in or inspired by science, tech, engineering, art and maths (STEAM).

These interesting people are anything but 'boring scientists' or 'wacky artists'. They have:

taught hundreds of children how to fly drones
created a balloon show to introduce the concept of genetics to children
sparked the start of a Canberra tribe of art-robots
used their engineering expertise to protect Australia.
